juliereinhardt Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Is this a good deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elite2058 Posted August 23, 2009 Author Share Posted August 23, 2009 Its a celeron, so it will be for just basic computering. I have one just like it and it is good for internet, but not games or heavy computering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
222deal Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Its better than a netbook for not a whole lot more money. If you are doing any type of gaming, working with videos/pictures though the celeron and only 2GB of ram on vista is going to be slow going. With that said, I like Toshiba laptops, you are getting better quality and more resale value as opposed to something like an Acer which also sells a lot of budget laptops. I like the color scheme to on a notebook this cheap. It looks almost like a big DS Lite :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shady24 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Nice deal, nice laptop. I bought one in March when it was on sale for $299. Couldn't be happier. Internet and basic laptop stuff is great. I bought 2GB more of Ram on Ebay for $20, and the things fly's. Not a gamer so no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neile457 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 If it has 2gb ddr2 memory, you would need to buy 2 x 2gb ddr2 ram chips. The computer will optimally run with 2 chips together, not one by itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
222deal Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Yeah,ram has gotten pretty cheap lately and it is a breeze to upgrade in a laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
