It's a Toshiba Satellite Pro. Very old, but it does the job... I had only a minor problem with the prolonged sleep. But it fixed itself after formatting my laptop. Well, after 3 years without formatting/reinstalling, any computer may have problems! ^^

My girlfriend even gave me a memory stick so it went up from 512 MB (4 years old...) to 1 GB... It's pretty easy to upgrade the memory on a Toshiba laptop (don't know for the rest still...).

On a side-note, my father bought 2 computers in 2 years from HP, and the first one is now in the trash, the second one will be joining it pretty soon I think. But, he still bought a cheap computer. Maybe the expansive ones are better, but HP is still said to build computers from cheap parts!

Toshiba is the best you can find. I think they are a little more expensive, but you won't have trouble with them!
