QUOTE(DonDropUrSoap @ Oct 9 2015, 08:25 PM) got think of ask family buy a desktop at home, like that, noneed to carry and worry my laptop that much If portability is not a concern, it's always advisable to get a desktop. Much cheaper with better performance. |

Heh, I am using a toshiba laptop too, and I regretted because the price can get me a decent MSI gaming laptop. My left speaker is acting up, HDD starts to "spin slower than usual", one edge of the aluminium body has worn off. And while shaking the laptop, I can hear rattling noise inside.
Go get a new one but not toshiba. |

Beli baru lah bro, dun tink your Toshiba lappie is from the Qosmio range right?
so after 4yrs its time to upgrade man. maybe you can share your current laptops specs with the otais here and they recommend a good replacement. |
