I am contemplating buying either A500-17x or L555-10R, but being new models, there are hardly any reviews on them. So I was wondering whether anyone here has bought the same models. The specs are alright to me but I am bit concerned about the heat issues and how Toshiba laptops handle it, as I haven't owned anything manufactured by Toshiba ever. Hope Toshiba owners here could help me make my decision.![]()
The specs are as follows.
A500-17x 16.4 1366 x 768 laptop
Core 2 Duo P7450
4 GB DDR 3 RAM
1 GB Geforce GT 230M DDR3 GPU
Harman Kardon speakers
USB Sleep-and-Charge
HDD 3D Impact Sensor
L555-10R 17.3 1,600 x 900 laptop
Core 2 Duo P7450
4 GB DDR 3 RAM
1 GB ATI Radeon 4650 DDR3 GPU.

Well what's the price difference? Also. Im not sure on this but I believe the 4650 us better than the 230M. Dont quote me on that. Hopefully someone will be able to back me up or tell me I'm wrong. The 4650 is what is in my laptop right now and I have the A500. It's a good, sturdy laptop. Another thing that may help you with your choice. Are you looking to carry it around? The 17.3 inch would be a pain to carry seeing how I get annoyed carrying around a 16" screen.

EDIT:You don't have to answer that, I just found the thread you'd started on A500-ST6621
Toshiba Satellite A500-17x or Satellite L555-10R?
