And wouldn't you know it, I ordered the wrong adapter. Le sigh...

Now I get to deal with both ordering and cancellation. Because putting a cancel button on an order wouldn't make sense, right?

Be wary of Toshibas too. Mine had something wrong with the power adapter and they kept burning out, and it took a year and half for them to finally fix it so that way it would read AC charges.

The quality must be going down then; my sister rented a Toshiba laptop a few years ago from the local technical college and never had a problem with it.

I didn't like the layout of the keys though and thought it ran too hot.
