I would trade it in and pick up a MacBook Pro (15 inch). It is more expensive than the Toshiba and you can use it at the local Starbucks without getting stared at.
For some reason, I’ve always loved the HP computers. I’ll say that I buy the extended warranty from them, and their service has been fantastic. I actually had a guy in my house Thursday replacing a screen where the backlight had failed.
On the other hand, I just bought an ASUS gaming laptop, it’s a huge behemoth, 9.5 pounds, and in 2 days the power brick went bad, and it took them 10 days to send me a new one, and I had to pay to send the broken one back. (I actually bought a spare from a 3rd-party vendor to get the computer working).
But it is a nice computer.

I got my wife the C885D-S505 at Best Buy for $280. It sounds pretty comparable and since all she wants if for is web surfing and Office 2010 it more than meets her needs. Might want to wander over there and check it out. Might save a couple of bucks.
