- With its integrated Wireless-N Wi-Fi networking capabilities, this laptop provides up to five times the performance and twice the wireless range using 802.11n-compatible routers as you would with 802.11g networks. It's also backward compatible with 802.11b/g networks (commonly found at Wi-Fi hotspots and in older home routers).

- Harman Kardon stereo speakers bring an added dimension to music, movies and gaming with rich, immersive virtual surround sound.
- Dolby Advanced Audio blends a suite of technologies to deliver a stunning audio experience from headphones or your laptop speakers. It analyzes audio signals and restores tones often lost in encoding, mimicking the same optimization techniques that go into tuning movie theaters and mixing rooms, resulting in brighter highs and deep, thumping bass tones. It also expands stereo signals to 6.1- or 7.1-channel playback for a listening experience that will have you talking long after the performance.
- Included Toshiba Software:
- Toshiba Media Controller offers simplified media sharing. Using an intuitive drag-and-drop interface, it lets you share videos, music and pictures from the media library on your laptop with compatible devices in your home entertainment network, or with other compatible laptops and devices, like an Xbox 360 game console. And you can do it all without moving equipment, burning discs or fumbling with cables.
- Toshiba Bulletin Board is an easy-to-use organizational and productivity app that lets you build your own personalized space on your desktop. With Toshiba Bulletin Board, you can quickly and easily manage your to-do lists and calendars, plus create your own custom work area by pinning your favorite photos, documents, links and more.
- Toshiba ReelTime helps you cut down the time it takes to search for files. The easy-to-use app takes traditional text-based file structures one step further to help you find what you're looking for more quickly. Accessible from your taskbar, it shows you a visual timeline of your recently accessed files--using graphical thumbnails--so you can easily identify and get to your files faster.
- Included Toshiba Utilities:
- Toshiba eco Utility makes it easy to go green as you go mobile. Hit the Eco Button and you'll launch the Toshiba Eco Utility, which puts all sorts of easy-to-read information on your screen, and gives you the ability to adjust the power settings on your laptop. It also activates a light showing you're in the Eco Mode. The Toshiba Eco Utility lets you pick the optimal power plan for your situation. Choose High-Performance when you need every watt you can get, Power Saver for the least energy consumption, or Balanced as a perfect blend of the two.
- Sleep and Music lets you enjoy your favorite tunes through speakers built into your Toshiba laptop without booting up--helping you conserve battery life. Just plug your portable player into the microphone jack, step back and enjoy.
- USB Sleep and Charge offers a great way to keep your portable electronics powered up without requiring your laptop to be on. With this laptop's Sleep and Charge USB port, you'll be able to charge your smart phone, MP3 player, and other portable electronics--all without having to keep your laptop awake.
- Hard Drive Impact Sensor takes the worry out of taking your most important files and multimedia on the go. Able to detect sudden movement along three different dimensions, the impact sensor (a complex system of hardware and software) helps safeguard your data by "parking" the hard drive heads in the event of a drop or sudden movement. And it works faster than you can blink to help protect your laptop and all-important data.
- Up to 5 hours of battery life (6-cell battery; 48 Wh)
- Dimensions & Weight: 13.3 x 9 x 1.39 inches (WxDxH); 5.4 pounds

Good balance of size and power : Toshiba Satellite M645-S4055 LED TruBrite 14-Inch Laptop (Black)
I use my M645 daily as my main computer, as I don't have a desktop computer. I am enjoying using it quite a bit.
Pros:
1)Great speakers. The best speakers I've ever had on a laptop. My girlfriend bought an external add-on speaker bar for her laptop because her laptop speakers suck. The M645's are just as good as her externals.
2)Keyboard. My previous laptop was a Macbook Pro from 2007. I liked that keyboard quite a bit, but I like this one more. The keys are "clickier" which lets me know for sure whether I've pressed a key completely or not. I didn't think I'd be a fan of where the Fn key is (between Ctrl and "Windows" keys), but it turns out that it's not a problem at all.
3)Game playing. It rocks at games. I admit I haven't played anything super new, but the games I've played haven't had any problems at max settings. These contain Fallout 3, Mass Effect, Bioshock, and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Just make sure to have the newest drivers from nVidia because I had problems with Fallout 3. Some games have a problem recognizing the discreet graphics chip and the newest drivers help with that.
4)"Chain link" texture. Practically the entire body is covered in a chain link texture. It's very nice. It's grippy, prevents glare, and keeps fingerprints from showing up. Two thumbs up!
Now the Cons:
1) I don't care for the touch strip above the keyboard. All the functions (and more) are replicated with the Fn key.
2)Bloatware. It comes with a lot of Toshiba crapware. All of which can be uninstalled and I recommend it. Some of it's kind of cool, but ultimately useless for most people.
3)The keyboard lighting is nice, but it can't be dimmed or controlled in any way, short of turning it off. I came from a Mac, and that keyboard automatically dimmed based on lighting conditions. I'm unimpressed with Toshiba on this.
4)Screen dimming is not very useful. It's the same complaint as my last one. My Mac would automatically dim or brighten based on lighting conditions. At least Toshiba implemented a crappy dimming highlight versus none at all. It has 8 brightness levels. Which sounds like a lot, but the inequity between them isn't enough. I basically only use the lowest and highest settings.
5)Battery. I know it's got a lot more power than my old Mac, but the battery drains of course quickly while not doing much at all.
That's about it. I hope this helps anything reading this to make a more informed decision! overall I would definitely buy it again.
