My Satellite

Below is my Toshiba Satellite L25 notebook specification. I buy this notebook on June 2006. This Toshiba notebook has given it best services to my life. It has helped me a lot to finish many of my (programming) projects and also entertain my life. At home I connect this notebook to Gadmei USB TV Box (It allow me to watch TV) and Multi Media Speaker Simbadda CST 6500. This Satellite L25 has dual operating system run on it. As you can see below, there is Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition as main operating system. And as second operating system I install Ubuntu 7.04. Actually I want to be Windows free. But some software to support my job is Windows base. So, here I am still stuck with Windows OS.

After 1 year and 8 month in my hand, this Toshiba Satellite L25 problem only about battery (common issue for notebook I guess). Today the battery can keep my Toshiba notebook on for less than 45 minute.

One more thing, USB Mouse (SunFlower mini optical mouse SF-1030) or touchpad some time got crash (malfunction) when I run Ubuntu on this machine. I have no idea why.

Am I satisfied with my Toshiba Satellite L25? Exclude battery life, yes, I satisfy with this Toshiba notebook.
