In addition to Steve's comments, the one which I have bought for my wife
doesn't have stand alone home and end keys.
You have to use a combination with pg-up and pg-dn (I think the operator key
is ctrl) - David

Hi Dion,

I personally don't like Toshiba laptops.  They tend to use non-standard
drivers, the sound is pretty poor lately, and other reasons.  But I do like
the look of this HP and may well get it.

All the best

Steve

Hi all

Saw a Toshiba at PC World the other day.

Comes with an extra battery, Intel dual core 1.46GHz processor, 2GB RAM, 1
MB cache and 120 GHZ hard drive.

Other specs also looks good.

If you go on
www.pcworld.co.uk
do a search for
Toshiba £399
and it should come up.

£100 reduction I think.
