Toshiba Satellite A665D-S6096 Pros:

• Nice big LCD without much extra weight.
• Processing speed is very fast.
• Not too much add-on junk installed (but some).
• Windows 7 x64 is a good choice, even if it's only Home Premium edition

Toshiba Satellite A665D-S6096 Cons:

• No Gigabit Ethernet. It's only 10/100. This is my biggest disappointment.
• Bigger so not super portable like a netbook, it has the separate number pad and the keys have space between (which is very nice) so it is long.
