Toshiba Satellite A205-S5879 Reviews

avoid toshiba - deserves no stars, September 1, 2008

By oldpcguy (usa) - deceptive advertising/specifications

Toshiba Satellite A205-S5879 Laptop was my misfortune to buy one of these lemons. Toshiba does not mention in their ads or specs that it is
built to only run vista. Installing any other operating system will void the warranty. They also don't mention that there is no actual vista disk included, only rescue disks to reinstall vista and the other crapware preinstalled on the hard drive. Over the course of more than two hours, their customer disservice department provided only excuses, evasions an misdirection. At one point, rather than provide information, they transferred my call microsoft. I will never again buy any Toshiba product - Toshiba cannot be trusted.

Good purchase, October 27, 2008

By Puff (Trinidad) - As always a solid toshiba product. Ignore what the other guy says, you can run XP on Toshiba Satellite A205-S5879 Laptop machine, but you will lose some of the features, as with any other Vista based machine.

Value for money, Toshiba Satellite A205-S5879 is a great buy..
