Reviews for the Toshiba Satellite C655D-S5043
Source: Computer Shopper
Even when money is tight, students still need laptops for school. Heck, even grandparents should own a PC these days. But not all computing needs are created equal, and not every shopper needs a feature-packed fashion accessory. This $449 laptop will suit those with basic computing needs. Note, though: A single-core CPU pushes its performance behind that of its peers.

ATI Radeon HD 4250: Onboard graphics card (in the RS880M chipset) for AMD processors with Avivo HD support and technically a higher clocked HD 4200.
Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

15.6": 15 inch display-variants are the standard and are used for more than the half of all notebooks. 15.4 inch display with 16:10 are the standard for notebook displays. However nowadays, more and more 16:9 displays with 15.6 inch appear. The reason why so many people like displays with medium size is, that this size is not exhausting for the eyes, does not need too much energy and the laptops can be kept quite compact.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
2.5 kg: This notebook is lighter than the average of all notebooks. It is too heavy for sub-notebooks. 14 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.
