    I am looking for a new laptop for college. I've been hearing nothing but praise for Toshiba Notebooks. I've been researching the Toshiba Satellite U405, but apparently there are two types, ST550W and the S2882. What are the advantages of one over the other?

    They are identical, except the ST550W has WiMAX built in (intel's 4G card, since service is limited, unless you live in an area that has service, its not worth it).
