    Maybe it was, because that site was quickly removed.

    No it's not a mistake - often times manufacturers like Toshiba would be produce a model for a specific retailer like Wal-Mart but would be based on the line of A105 which will have a wide range SXXXX. So while it may not appear on Toshiba's site, it is a Toshiba notebook - Wal-Mart has given most of the specs on their site and if you need more details from Toshiba - just look for their A105 line of models

    It's still there - certain retailer like Walmart and OfficeMax deliberately do this - search for the product ID: 5691014

    the site is ok and the link works...
    anyway are you sure that this model is ok? and what about the store is it a good store?
    and do you think that Toshiba Satellite A135-S4467 is better or not? cause this one is on toshibas site and on many other stores

    I am not familiar with this particular line of Toshiba - but here's the A105 lines at Toshiba's homesite:

    As for the it being better than A135 - please check the Review section. There are numerous reviews already out there for both lines. I'm sure there are threads at this section as well and others, Toshiba owners, will chime in :D
