How many great inventions of this modern world do we take for granted? I for one used to neglect Toshiba laptops and their greatness” begins the post from Coriander Dreams in her post entitled ‘Using this one everyday’ – and what a pleasant beginning to a post it is.

Now although the mysteriously monikered author doesn’t go on to elucidate about exactly what Toshiba she is talking about, she does seem to be extremely happy about the “glossy screen” – of course, not everything is perfect – but while “the only thing I am not that happy about is the screen size”, who can deny that “of course this means it is a lot lighter in weight as well so I should not really complain about it.”

Meanwhile, Colleen from GeekySpeaky has come out, all guns blazing, in support of Microsoft Vista – quite unexpected after she openly admits that she actively sought any other operating system just weeks ago when purchasing a sparkly new Toshiba. All change now though, and she has to admit “I’ve been pleasantly surprised. I haven’t had any of the compatibility issues that I’ve heard others reporting, and if anything, Vista and the way it works to organize things has made my life easier.”

“So yes, I’m willing to take back all of the negative press I gave Vista…but it IS a Microsoft product, so we all know there’s still room for error.” Indeed, but interesting to note that there are bloggers out there who do like the Vista platform.

Meanwhile, Tom Barrett has received his new Toshiba Satellite A300 to review, and has already discovered a nifty feature “Been sent a new Toshba A300 to look at - fancy Harmon Kardon speakers in built” – we hope you enjoy it sir!
