    Since no one else would post current photos of recent Toshiba purchases so others could see if there were any recent design changes, I figured I would. (No one that I could find, had posted pictures of this laptop and Toshiba reviews overall are harder to find)

    Of the top of my head, it will be coming with:

    Core i7 4th gen
    Blu-Ray / DVD Re/RW drive
    4 USB 3.0 ports
    HDMI
    15.6" FHD 1080 screen
    WITH the number pad keys (it will be doing light excel duty)
    And an AMD R9 graphics card (will be doing some CS5 work)


    I should see it sometime next week (Aug 26th ish)

    I don't know how to do any of the fancy benchmarking reviews but if you want pictures of certain parts or have questions about first impressions on it feel free to ask!

    I'm going to be primarily using this one for Blu-Ray playback/Netflix/some light photo edit work in might room and perhaps the full adobe creative suite/and finally, it might end up being a starter computer for a side gig making some luggage products so it'll be doing everyday business banking, excel work, and contract agreements.
