 Freezes after less than 2 yearsMay 11, 2010
I have a toshiba satellite A205 and it freezes when I plug the DC adapter, I have it less than 2 years. I took it to my local Toshiba repair place and they have tolde me they have 5 more notes with the same problem and they don't know what to do. So I was advised to take it home and call once in a while to see if they have a solution... I have searched on the net and a lot of people around the globe has the same problem. To check type satellite a205 freeze on google and see it for yourself. I don' recomend it at all.
Broken within 10 monthDec 19, 2009
I had a Toshiba laptop abut 15 years ago and that one lasted forever. Bought this through Amazon last summer and the hard drive malfunctioned in less than 10 month. I will NOT recommend Toshiba any more.
 GREAT COMPUTER FROM A SATISFIED CUSTOMER!Jun 18, 2009
I bought this computer in January 2008 and sold it yesterday-June 2009. It came with a duo core processor and 1 gb of Ram. I purchased an additional 1 GB of RAM and had it installed. This computer is great for the price! Let me tell you that I use and abuse computers and this one held out! The major obstacle you will have is getting Vista to work properly. To get it going you have to reduce Vista to minimal settings and take off all the extra malware that it comes with. After this it works like a charm. I used it during two years of college and it went through major abuse but it held in there playing games, itunes, and all sorts of downloads. I bought it on sale from Best Buy for 400 dollars and sold it yesterday for 300 dollars on craigslist because people like the duo core that works well and runs itunes, bf2, bf1942, MS Word and Autocad like a charm. And if you are having problems with your ipod you need to update itunes or replace the firewire cable. Trust me, often it is just the apple firewire cable. I'm no apple wiz but after blaming my Toshiba for not detecting my ipod I began to suspect my firewire and bought a new one from Apple and the itunes loaded in a sec.
One Note:
For the laptop and technically challenged - Anti-Virus software and IE8 bog down your system. Remove it and back up your sensitive data on an external hard drive and run Vista on minimal settings and it will run super fast.
Also: it over heats if you keep it on a blanket or a table and run it for hrs. and hrs. like I did and then automatically shuts off so invest in a cooling fan. Heat is the enemy of all electrical components.
 Very satisfiedApr 03, 2009
I bought this laptop from somewhere else, and I've been using it for 14 months non stop for video application, email, word processing and so on so far so good for it doesn't crash once. the only upgrade I made is with the ram. It's now running on 1.5 GB ram. The sound on this baby is the top, it has good internet reception both wired or wireless. Very good image quality, good hand rest but I only give it 4 stars it lacks usb ;port and the ROM drive is not superior. It doesn't have camera nor microphone on it. Besides that the Toshiba satellite a205-s5804 is a reliable laptop. So I am very satisfied with this Toshiba product. Highly recommend it.
Great laptopMar 13, 2009
This laptop is a great value for basic computer needs. It's quick and reliable. It's also easy (and pretty cheap) to upgrade if you just buy the RAM separately.
