Toshiba laptops

[John McGregor]

I had a Satellite 5003 which died after 14 months of use due to a poorly 
designed cooling system which was unrepairable. I was fortunate to have 
purchased an extended warranty, so I was able to replace it with an Acer 
at no cost to me. At the time that I was searching out possible 
replacements, I saw reports on Tux Mobil that Toshiba uses a funky 
method of accessing SATA drives and that this can make installing Linux 
difficult to impossible. I wouldn't buy a Toshiba again.
