    You really can't complain about a laptop this cheap. But it really is cheap. I bought it on sale for $199.00 but I still returned it. Nothing against BB but I couldn't handle it. I might have got a bad one but it was very slow and just overall cheap. If you're really in a bind and you need a computer, it will do. If you're not in a bind, save your money and wait!

      Posted .

      Thank you for the review, Bobinroundrock, and sorry that you are not satisfied with the Satellite C55-B5101.

      While the Intel Celeron processor and 4GB RAM is something of an entry level configuration, it is a great value for those whose applications don't demand more power. That said, since you already returned yours I hope you're looking at Toshiba's many higher performance laptops -- perhaps one of our Intel Core i7 models.

      Thanks again for the feedback and for choosing Toshiba. Toshiba

    This computer is cheap junk and was bought for me as a replacement for an Compaq/HP computer that my boyfriend broke. It constantly freezes up and looses its connection to internet. I wanted him to take it back and get me an HP/compaq but he didn't. Especially hate the fact that is has Windows 8. esp when Windows 10 was coming out. So many problems with it.
