That helped me to make the decision on this netbook. I did a month of research before making my decision. Instead of returning my computer, I just bought a skin, which probably amounted to the same price had I bought the brown netbook but at least I got to choose a really cool design. My Toshiba netbook arrived from Amazon today!
This is my first netbook. I researched a while before I made the decision to make my purchase and I'm happy to be able to say that I made a good decision with this one. The speaker is small, but sounds great to me. The battery has been holding up superbly. Highly recommend for someone who wants an easy travel netbook that's light, portable, and pretty fast. I wouldn't buy if you intend to do a lot of work other than web surfing.
It's plenty loud and sounds fine. I also upgraded to windows 7 home premium, which boosted performance in my opinion. If you're looking for a small compact quality Notebook, Don't let this one get away! I love everything about this new computer. Another highlight of this particular netbook is the screen. It is magnificent for being as small as it is! Again, no noticeable improvements but at least I can change my background. They keyboard is nicely laid out. I put in a second GB but haven't really noticed major improvements, it was fine before but it's nice knowing that it's already there. I also loaded Win7 Home because it was $20.
It saved me from having to watch Vanessa Hudgens in Beastly. Just an aside, I have a bone to pick with Amazon constantly changing prices. Small, lightweight, flexible and cheap were the watchwords. After reading a bunch of reviews, I settled on this Toshiba (including a 2 GB chip upgrade).
I use it mainly to watch Netflix in bed. It works great for other functions too. I was prepared to be underwhelmed, but am pleasantly surprised. I was having a Goldilocks moment - my laptop (also a Toshiba and a great machine) is too big to carry around town or on low/no-work travel, and my Android phone, while it does everything but wash the dishes, is a bit small. With iPad there's a lot of incompatibility issues and requires hassles to download a lot of software just to visit certain sites. For a third of a price of an iPad, I have a very sleek looking gadget that does a lot than I expected.
