Been using one with a Centrino processor, Wifi, Bluetooth, 512 MB Ram, DVD/CD burner, 80GB HDD, ATI Radeon Video Graphics chip and heck, its a trouble-free machine. Wala akong naging problema kahit kelan. I think the model no. is Satellite A80 P440.
Just be sure to keep it free from dust, though since they tend to accumulate fast.

Bought it almost 2 years ago from BPI Installment Madness on Glorietta. I think the store's name was Complink. They gave me a pretty good deal. Php 84k, 24 mos. to pay, 24 mos warranty, parts and service. I guess if you're buying from the US, just check to make sure that their Philippine distributor (TRICOM) honors the international warranty.
I have 2 Toshibas, pareho sa US binili. Both are Satellites, A45-S120 and M55-S325. The A45 is 3 years old and the only problem that has developed so far is with the CD burner. The CDs produced are not reliably read even with the same drive. The drive has no problems reading other CDs or DVDs though.
Other than that, no problems. You can't go wrong with it, siguraduhin mo lang ang pag-alaga. Good luck!
