I suspect the actual laptop is a good one. Don't like vista much but Toshiba will apparently send me a new win 7 upgrade with this laptop (waiting for it to arrive). Most of what annoys me about the laptop I think is vista related. It takes a long time to boot compared to what I am used to on XP. Battery life is around 2 hours (not sure if that is vista related). The 64 bitness confuses vista into upgrading drivers even when the 32 bit driver has more functionality. Ex: The touchpad driver it came with had finger scroll support until vista found a newer 64 bit driver and upgraded to it; I had to go back and downgrade the driver to get back the scroll function. I might ammend this review depending on how well Windows 7 clears up some of the issues.

What Is LabelFlash?  The Latest DVD Laser Labeling Technology!
The Labelflash™ system burns pictures directly into a special layer added to the non-data, or label, side of a DVD disc and eliminates the need for special printers, and consumables such as ink.

High quality images on the disc label side:
Labelflash utilizes the existing recording laser in DVD-writers to burn high contrast and high resolution images by changing the blue dye color to colorless. Optimal image data processing is carried out in accordance with the burning time, and pictures of high-resolution and high contrast can be burned.  Labelflash utilizes a newly developed, pick up and rotation control, and high-speed signal processing system of image data. The special Labelflash disc structure realizes the optimal focusing setting. Stable burning of pictures can be completed in as little as 5 minutes.

Long-lasting, titles and pictures:
The picture-burning layer is located 0.6mm deep into the media and protected by a polycarbonate layer. Images last longer since they cannot be touched directly.

Labelflash disc features:

  • High-quality images can be burned on the entire labeling surface.
  • With a Labelflash-compliant DVD drive, you can burn a high contrast and resolution image by changing the blue dye color to colorless and shading it using the same laser used for data recording.
  • The dye used has high durability and light-resistance, making it ideal for long-term storage.
  • Unrivaled compatibility with the drive: The writing laser utilizes our independently developed “OXOLIFE” dye coating.
  • Labelflash DVD discs utilize both photo and organic synthesis technology thorough our independently developed organic dye, “OXOLIFE.” This unique dye offers superb temperature/moisture protection and light-resistance, making it ideal for highly-sensitive, high-precision writing and long-term storage.

About ENERGY STAR
ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy helping us all save money and protect the environment through energy efficient products and practices. Results are already adding up. Americans, with the help of ENERGY STAR, saved enough energy in 2007 alone to avoid greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to those from 27 million cars — all while saving $16 billion on their utility bills.

ENERGY STAR Qualified Products
Products in more than 50 categories are eligible for the ENERGY STAR. They use less energy, save money, and help protect the environment. Ask for the ENERGY STAR.  Energy efficient choices can save families and businesses about a third on their energy bill with similar savings of greenhouse gas emissions, without sacrificing features, style or comfort. ENERGY STAR helps you make the energy efficient choice.  If looking for new household products, look for ones that have earned the ENERGY STAR. They meet strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the EPA and US Department of Energy.

What is ExpressCard™ technology?
ExpressCard technology is the name of a new standard introduced by PCMCIA in spring 2003. The ExpressCard standard delivers thinner, faster and lighter modular expansion to desktop and notebook computer users. Consumers can add hardware capabilities such as memory, wired and wireless communications cards and security devices by simply inserting these modules into their systems. All ExpressCard slots accommodate modules designed to use either Universal Serial Bus (USB*) 2.0, or the emerging PCI*Express standards.

What Is FireWire?
FireWire (also known as the IEEE 1394 interface) is a serial bus interface standard, for high-speed communications and isochronous real-time data transfer, used on PCs & MACs , with storage devices, and with digital audio and digital video devices. The interface is also known by the brand names of FireWire (Apple's name) and i.LINK (Sony's name).

FireWire has replaced SCSI in many applications, due to lower costs and a simplified, more adaptable cabling system. IEEE 1394 has been adopted as the High Definition Audio-Video Network Alliance (HANA) standard connection interface for A/V (audio/visual) component communication and control. FireWire is also available in wireless, fiber optic, and coaxial versions.

Almost all modern digital camcorders have included this connection since 1995, as do the vast majority of high end professional audio interfaces. Since 2003 many computers intended for home or professional audio/video use have built-in FireWire/i.LINK ports, even some iPods. It is also available on many motherboards.  FireWire has also become a dominant local storage interface, for use with external storage devices, such as external hard drives..

Hyper-Transport Technology

HyperTransport™ technology is a high-speed, low latency, point-to-point link designed to increase the communication speed between integrated circuits in computers, servers, embedded systems, and networking and telecommunications equipment up to 48 times faster than some existing technologies.

HyperTransport™ technology helps reduce the number of buses in a system, which can reduce system bottlenecks and enable today's faster microprocessors to use system memory more efficiently in high-end multiprocessor systems.

HyperTransport™ technology is designed to:

  • Provide significantly more bandwidth than current technologies
  • Use low-latency responses and low pin counts
  • Maintain compatibility with legacy PC buses while being extensible to new SNA (Systems Network Architecture) buses.
  • Appear transparent to operating systems and offer little impact on peripheral drivers.

What Is USB 2.0?
USB 1.1 was great when it was introduced almost a decade ago.  But the newer USB 2.0 transfers data dramatically faster - up to 40 times quicker. Plus, USB 2.0 provides additional bandwidth for multimedia and storage applications, which are growing larger every year. Also to your advantage is the fact that USB 2.0 is forward and backward compatible with USB 1.1, which means that cables and connectors made for the original USB configuration will also work perfectly in a USB 2.0 port, though some newer devices are specifically designed for USB 2.0.  It is always a good idea to verify the version of USB supported by each device you want to use.
