I need both for business and I love both. The Toshiba is probably tougher. It survived being slammed accidentally to the floor. |
I definitely agree! Toshiba's are fantastic. Before I was able to get a macbook pro I used a Toshiba that cost around $400. It was very sturdy, it was really nice looking, it had a DVD/CD slot, it had a LARGE screen which was very nice quality. Bigger than my macbook pro which is 13" inches. It worked fast. It was the best computer that I had ever owned before the macbook. The macbook is technically a little more convenient to travel with ... but I sometimes wish I still had my Toshiba! My sister however uses my Toshiba now and she travels with it all the time without a problem.
I don't remember what specific Toshiba it was called, but if you go into best buy and give them your price range I'm sure they can show you some nice ones!
Now that I think about it! I am pretty sure that my Toshiba was from that Satellite series as well. I LOVED that computer =D
