There's no one standout feature on the Toshiba Satellite L665D-S5066 ($599.98 list), a low-end 15.6-inch laptop sold at Staples, other than the fact that it's based on AMD's new Vision platform. Performance from the AMD Turion II CPU is fair at best; laptops with Intel Core i3 and Core i5 CPUs cost only a bit more and offer much better performance. Its battery life also fails to impress. While it didn't set the labs on fire, the Satellite L665D-S5066 is an attractive laptop; its charcoal-gray exterior looks good for both home and office use. And the laptop's audio output is much improved compared with past Satellite models we've tested. While the Toshiba Satellite L665D-S5066 does nothing to outwardly offend, your money will go further elsewhere.
