I am jinxed. Well, when it comes to electronics anyway. As a matter of fact, my loving Hubby has “banned” me from touching his laptop. (Yeah, so he doesn’t have to know I touch touch TOUCH it just to spite him ALL the time) Ahem. Anyway, back to me. I have managed to kill one computer, one cell phone and no matter how careful I was with my notebook, I hung it, froze it and ended up cursing at that thing just about every single day. Me and pretty electronic things just don’t get along. Until now!!!
Enter into my world this super pretty Toshiba Satellite L745 Laptop.
She arrived on my doorstep all wrapped up in bubble paper. I might have “squeed” a bit as I unwrapped her shiny newness.
Ta Da!
Now that I have been using the Toshiba Satellite L745 Laptop for more then a month I can say with confidence that there are many reasons it is the perfect laptop for me….for you!
*It is user friendly.
*It is light weight ( I take her everywhere)
*It has a 14” HD Screen!
*It has a built in DVD player.
*Boasts more then 8G of memory, more storage then I will ever need.
*I have to discuss the keypad. Having gone through my share of keyboards, I have to tell you I love the touch, the feel, of the keys. It sounds like a silly thing, but it makes a difference!
*The laptop has built in stereo speakers.
*An integrated web cam.
*Ports include a place where I can slide my full size memory card. (no more hunting for the camera cord to hook up!)
*The battery life on this laptop lasts FOREVER! I have gone more then 5 hours without having to plug in!
*One other feature that must be mentioned…face recognition! Very Star Trek!! Toshiba explains this futuristic feature like as follows:
Log on—with just a smile.
Toshiba Face Recognition is the ultimate hands-free, hassle-free way to logon to your laptop. No keeping track of hard-to-remember passwords. No unnecessary typing. Just your unique visage gazing into the built-in Webcam on your notebook and presto―you’ve got access! How’s that for sci-fi technology?
I would describe it as extraordinary!!
In summary, the Toshiba Satellite L745 is the perfect, reliable and budget friendly choice for students, bloggers, and Mamas alike!
As I made my way through University, work and now my blogging career, I have used and abused many brands of laptops. I can say in all honesty this Toshiba Satellite Laptop has been by far my favourite! Confession, I’m crushing on my Toshiba Laptop.

This sounds like an amazing machine. Thanks for a great review.
I absolutely Love, love love my Toshiba satellite. It is an older version but it has been my favorite so far and I would buy another one when this one sadly bites the dust.
The feel of a keyboard is one of the most important features of a computer for me!
I want one! Sadly, in this household, we’ll never, ever purchase a computer, much less a brand new one. My husband rebuilds and works on servers for a living, so I’m usually typing away at some 1987 relic. 🙂
Enjoy your new technology. 🙂
This is awesome. I think my new laptop is almost ready to be replaced… yep, I said new. I will not disclose what kind it is… but I am not satisfied 4 months later.
I am so technologically challenged I don’t know how to get online via wi-fi. I know you said jinxed not challenged, but I will prefer to think of it like we are in the same category.
Oooh! Very cool! We’re in the market for a new computer/laptop and we LOVE Toshiba. Thanks for sharing this!
it’s so pretty! lol.
and I LOVE the idea of facial recognition!!!
Battery life is always a selling point. I find Toshiba’s to be really good machines all around. Thanks for sharing.
Congrats to YOU and your new baby.
me? I’ll never break up with my mac. 🙂
Sounds like a great deal. The battery life sounds wonderful.
Have a great day.
I have been looking that the Toshiba Ultrabooks – they look amazing, small and light weight prefect for taking on the go. And hubby wants a Toshiba 3D TV. So we are both having Toshiba crushes right now!
