While the screen is not visibly brighter than my former Toshiba, it is still the famous TruBrite screen, which beats most anything else out there in the world of notebooks.

Matter of fact, I was considering an HP (have a couple of friends who love theirs), but the HP laptop screen is no match for a Toshiba.

This was the first time I ever used a personal laptop or computer at home with AMD processor and I should say I loved it.

It's not a monster by any means, but the quad core processor doesn't fail to impress.

The AMD Turion II P540 processor was just released in Oct 2010 just in time for Thanksgiving, so this is the very best laptop chip they have to offer at the moment.

I could never do this on my Inspiron (Core 2 Duo with a 2 GB RAM, but here on TOSHIBA it was a breeze!!! (Touchwood))!

recently bought this computer and its OK but the battery only last 1.30 hours and only surfing the internet no games or anything it has a windows rating of only 4.1 and it gets hotter than my second toshiba laptop which only cost me 340$ has a 4 hours battery and a rating windows of 4.7 ,recently played a game on both laptops and the L655D ran hotter almost to hot while they both handle the game ok, I guess it has something to do with not having any ventilation under the fan will not recomend.
Satellite L655D by N.-LOZANO (Aug, 2011)
Would I still buy it, probably not, since there are other laptops with almost as good a performance, but a better battery life at a close enough price.

The design of the laptop is printed onto the plastic somehow, its not a decal or anything (the top got scratched somehow, but it's still shiny).

I've had it for a couple weeks now, it runs great, the graphics for my video games are awesome, and it was easy set up.
Rated 100% by by CJ (Aug, 2010)
The sound is good, the display is good, the touch pad is good, but the performance could be better.

Speakers

from the speakers is way too low you have to wear earbuds or extra speakers if you want to rock your house.

My old Toshiba definitely has better sound quality with its built in speakers.

Battery

If you charge it while in sleep mode, it will charge without burning, but since it is only recognized by the battery once in a while you never know if it is charging or not.

Fortunately, with the extended warranty, I was able to get a new battery, but it only allows you ONE replacement, ever.

My current unit is a higher version of this model and my previous one was an earlier large capacity Toshiba.

Ports

although it's a good laptop, when I use skype, no microphone is found, so ther is no microphone to talk.

The built-in speakers are decent, but I hardly use them since I'm always plugged into desktop speakers or headphones.

Wifi

Obviously, I prefer a wheel mouse (ordered a nice wireless type, Logitech, at the same time).
