http://cgi.ebay.com/TOSHIBA-18.4"-L...temQQimsxZ20091005?IMSfp=TL091005181002r38580 Couldn't find any reviews out there. Any opinions? It has an 18" screen but only 1680x960 res. Does that really matter for charts and level 2?
eBay and $800 is a BIG red flag to me. I don't trust the company (eBay) and I don't trust people who list things on there. The news is full of people who advertise and sell imaginary items. There are plenty of people who have fun and make money but not for me thanks. If you have $800 to spend on a laptop, try newegg or best buy. as to that specific laptop, I know nothing about it.
Actually the price is $650 at BJ's, the biggest negatives I believe are short battery life and processors that run hot.
