tendouser Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I'm close to buy a notebook. I will buy a refurbished in USA and bring it to Panamá. I need at least 10 replies to comment about what's better: Thinkpad or Toshiba? I want to replace Windows for Linux in a future. Thank you guys!

Doug G Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 They are both good. I'm typing this from linux on a Toshiba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.josh Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I had a toshiba satellite for a while. I liked it, except for the glossy finish that left a ton of finger prints all over it. But that's just superficial. As far as performance, I enjoyed it. Too bad my kids broke it :*( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikachu2000 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I've had 2 Toshibas, and I was pleased with both of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnoTheDev Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I've had 2 Toshibas, and I was pleased with both of them. Me too, although the one I had from 4 years ago had better speakers than the one I have now which is only a few months old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizmola Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 They are both solid vendors with a long track record. It's silly to base your decision on a thread here. As a developer, one of the things I wanted in my most recent notebook computer was a chip that supported virtualization, so I could run 32 and 64 bit virtualized operating systems on the notebook using sun virtualbox. My point is ... you need to have some criteria to get any meaningful feedback, otherwise you're just asking for anecdotes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
