Throwing around the idea of buying a new laptop. Something cheap, absolutely has to be less than $500. Prefer the 3-400 range. Will be used primarily for browsing and watching videos off my GoPro.
Thoughts on this one?

Quad core proc + 12GB of memory + 1TB of hdd + Webcam + DVD Burner + Windows 10, now that is an impressive list of specs for the price!!
Time was when you could not get something like this for less than a grand!
Having never owned a Toshiba, I cannot speak to its reliability which has to be considered as well.AMP/Pre Pro: Outlaw 7000x, Marantz AV7703

Good features! Toshibas are pretty good machines, the only thing I don't like about them is their sound cards. Not the best for AUDIO. I prefer Lenovos there. But the lower end Lenovos have a Sxxty track-pad.
Can't argue with 12 GB of memory and 1 TB of HDD.Currently orbiting Bowie's Blackstar.!

Thanks fellas. I was holding out for something a little cheaper, but couldn't find anything. There was another Toshiba on amazon that was close, but not quite. Wal-Mart also had the cheapest drops/spills warranty. I normally don't get those, but since the reason we're getting a laptop is because my 10 month old (at the time) dropped the last one, I figured it'd be a good investment.

Sounds like a deal Cody, WalMart has been hurting financially for about 10 or 11 months now, they could use the business.
