What do you know about keyboard issues on the Toshiba laptops?


I was thinking of the toshiba because it is more portable and my wife will occasionally use it on her lunch break. I'm like you, I like the larger screen on the Asus as we always take a laptop on vacation with us to watch movies and such.

Clock speed is an issue, but I'm not sure it is a deal breaker. There wont be anything too heavy being done with this. No gaming or video editing that uses up a lot of resources.


Do you know of any other laptops I should be looking at?
