Review Toshiba Satellite C660 Notebook - Notebookcheck.net Reviews

Pros
+ Solid workmanship
+ Good keyboard
+ Quiet and cool
+ Low power consumption
Cons
- Low performance (should suffice for your usage though)
- Very clattery mouse keys
- Very few interfaces
- Clattery battery

One major -ve of the laptop is that it got only 2 USB 2.0 ports and the mouse keys are clattery. If you dont use more than 2 USB 2.0 at a time and use a external mouse most times then it should be a non-issue.

Then do a bit of reasearch locally and report back with stock and pricing locally. Models that we suggest might not be available locally or might cost a 1 or 2k more, right?

Not too great. 6-cell 48Whr battery. 2.5-3 hrs max with min-moderate brightness.(wi-fi on, browsing or wifi off and movie via headphones)
Also keep in mind that the speaker is mono and is pretty weak unless you have a good sound source (720p rips)
