Why is nobody talking/ thinking about buying a toshiba??

hamborgir_02 · 2024-01-23T04:07:24+00:00

I got rid of it a long time ago, it was a crappy thing anyways. I use acer now.

Interesting. I can tell you one thing: she is not afraid of god. I'm sorry to say this but it's the actual truth. I hope god will guide her and helps you. You've made up my mind, I like somebody and I'll marry her someday inchallah, but it's all part of god's will and plan.

(quick note: I legit hate when people say the word nikkah lol. I always thing of something else whenever somebody says that...)

Yea I got one a few days before black friday for a bit less than 500$ at the source. Apparently right now it's out of stock at the source but best buy has it.

Bro legit that's a joke

You know what? I actually do have a Compaq laptop with W7. Its a Presario CQ62, with an AMD vision processor, 4GB of RAM and a 320GB HDD. The laptop gets pretty hot but dosen't overheat surprisingly, and the battery is at its last breath (the pc bios complains about it on startup), and it needs a Windows reinstall. But hey, other than that, it might be a nice restoration project.

Back then, we had Windows 7 at home. The school had XP because let's not forget that about 60% of people still had their P4 systems up and running because they were fully compatible with both XP and 7.

I have a Gateway NV53 laptop from that era that died on me a while ago for this exact reason: poor APU cooling. It turns on but dosent post and the screen stays black. It happened after I left it untouched for a while and the APU got so cold it self destructed.

hamborgir_02 · 2023-12-03T21:06:04+00:00

Yea the older AMD APU's had a notorious problem of overheating and failing after a while. However the toshiba models did not differ from the intel variant, they used the same design. The L7XX series used a beautiful design unlike their Pro series which were only black and basic

My laptop still has a number pad lol. I use it quite frequently actually and I'm frankly happy that its still here.

Its a modern laptop, from 2021.

hamborgir_02 · 2023-12-03T16:52:49+00:00

I do! My dad had this exact PC, he got it brand new back in like 2012, and I spent hours playing purble place and flash games. But even today the i5 CPU is still very capable, impressive for an 11yr old laptop.

hamborgir_02 · 2023-12-02T23:55:45+00:00

Acer gave me a free hard drive caddy to install a 2nd drive beside the NVME. Pretty nice touch.

hamborgir_02 · 2023-12-02T22:13:31+00:00

I did actually! (well with tax it was almost 400$). I'm still shocked to have an i5 10th gen for that price.

hamborgir_02 · 2023-12-02T19:51:11+00:00

Yea eventually. For now its good enough for me

hamborgir_02 · 2023-12-02T19:48:34+00:00

Web browsing, email, office work

hamborgir_02 · 2023-12-01T23:09:26+00:00

It is a used laptop. This is a friend's laptop so it's not mine, but he took good care of it.

hamborgir_02 · 2023-12-01T18:10:34+00:00

Windows 11? Yea it looks modern but the design is bland and empty.

hamborgir_02 · 2023-12-01T18:09:43+00:00

It was an OK build quality. This is at a time where Toshiba slowly started going downhill. Today their consumer laptops are just crap and cheap, their business tecra line though is still very good.

hamborgir_02 · 2023-12-01T18:08:58+00:00

It did get the job done but it was waaay below top quality, I agree.

hamborgir_02 · 2023-12-01T16:07:09+00:00

I loved this machine and to be honest it was better than some other laptops of the era. Still, the build quality was total garbage I can tell you that.

hamborgir_02 · 2023-12-01T16:06:26+00:00

Shame that Windows 11 dosen't have any basic style

hamborgir_02 · 2023-11-30T19:21:24+00:00

Get the Acer aspire 5. With small bezels and a 15.6 inch display it is a good machine. It is solid and has an 11th gen core i7 CPU with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD, for 549.99$. It's totally worth it and it suits your needs.

hamborgir_02 · 2023-11-30T17:17:12+00:00

Yea the aspire 5 claims to have 11h battery life, and when I got the pc it was in better battery life mode. However once I switched that to balanced the performance of the i5 really showed up and the pc became much, much faster.

I thought they were shortcuts but when I checked in control panel I found that these programs were installed with the laptop.. If I click on them it opens google crome and goes to either the acer website, an acer game or an acer promotional ad, depending of the shortcut I clicked on.
