Over at Gadget Review I have a hands-on review of the Toshiba Satellite A665 laptop. The A665 is spacious 16-incher with an Intel Core i7 CPU, 4 GB of DDR3 memory, and NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M graphics. I liked the A665, and i think it would make a nice high-end entertainment computer for home use. It’s not that rugged, so I wouldn’t get one for business, school, or chronic Starbucks use. Also, I hate the off-centered keyboard.

The last Toshiba I spent any time using was probably a T4600 or thereabouts. It had the side-mounted tiny trackball that you worked with your thumb. Ah, the memories….
