Product Description: Whether sitting on your couch or in your office, the Satellite M35 Series with Intel Centrino mobile technology incorporates convenient productivity features ready for any business or home. Combined with an enhanced battery life and increased performance packaged in an eye-catching silver design, the Satellite M35 Series is the notebook you want for both work and play.
Amazon.com Product Description: Futuristically styled in a sleek silver chassis, the Toshiba Satellite M35-S320 Notebook PC is a nifty amalgamation of the features most important to the majority of portable computer users. Powerful but not at the expense of added weight and sporting such amenities as integrated wireless connectivity and a widescreen display, this is a great unit for personal, leisure and midlevel business applications.
Measuring 14.1 by 10.6 by 1.4 inches and weighing just 6.2 pounds, the Satellite M35-S320 Notebook is rather wide but comfortably slim and quite portable. Toshiba has based the system on Intel's Centrino technology, whereby three interconnected elements -- an Intel Pentium M CPU (with 1 full MB of Level 2 cache), an Intel 855 chipset, and a cord-free network connection -- work together to keep your notebook lightweight, wirelessly connected, power efficient, and faster than its rated CPU speed might indicate. Driven by a quick 1.5 GHz Pentium M CPU, 512 MB RAM memory (expandable to 2 full GB) and a nVidia GeForce FX graphics controller with 32 MB of dedicated video memory, the unit is ready for most typical 2-D and 3-D tasks, though it may have trouble smoothly displaying the sophisticated 3-D imaging of today's most complex three-dimensional games and graphic design suites.
The system's large 60 GB hard disk offers enough storage space for all your regular data and a substantial library of multimedia files too, and its CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive allows you to listen to and burn audio CDs, archive data to durable digital media, and play DVD movies. DVD burning is not supported. Other welcome amenities include a generous 15.4-inch display in DVD-friendly widescreen 16:9 format, an 85-key keyboard with 12 hotkeys, a TouchPad pointing device with scroll function, and integrated harman/kardon stereo speakers.
With the Satellite M35-S320 Notebook, communication options are virtually limitless. In environments with wired connections, you can select from a 56K dial-up modem or high-speed 10/100 Ethernet LAN. When hardwiring is a problem, you can stay in touch via integrated IntelPRO/Wireless 2100 LAN. Other key components include three fast USB 2.0 ports for fast interaction with external plug and play devices such as scanners and digital cameras, an S-Video TV--out, and an infrared port for wireless communication with PDAs and the like.

Rating: - Power problems, but otherwise a great computer
I've had this model for about 2 years and am generally satisfied with it with a few exceptions. The screen suddenly goes black from time to time (irrespective of the energy-saving settings), it gets burning hot after a short period of time (nearly melted a pen sitting next to it), and the battery is a real pain because it has to be plugged in after a short time (20 minutes or less). I've taken care of the battery as recommended, so that's not the cause of the short-life problem. As another reviewer pointed out, the speakers could have greater volume (to hear over the fan, lol). Also, if it could ... Read More
Rating: - Very good but one problem.
I think that this is a very good computer, matter of fact im using it right now but when used for 15 min it gets hot, and I mean very hot. I burned myself using it and forgetting that it gets hot. Except for that little detail, overall I have never had any viruses and I think that this computer will last me a long time.

I bought this machine to replace my sony vaio pcg-grz630 that had some sort of unfixable issue that caused it to turn off and then only turn back on occasionally if you held your breath and tossed salt over your left shoulder while saying chants to the old-gods. My experience with Sony support was the stuff of nightmares. I never did talk to anyone who could give me any answers despite hours spent in frustration. My vaio was a "better" machine if you just look at the specs. It had a bigger hard-drive, more memory, was faster, and more expensive, but my toshiba outperforms it. Here's how:

Rating: - Fan is very noisy.
Fan is bit too noisy. You can hear it start and stop. May be thats why this laptop has HK speakers (although the speakers can be better!). Laptop becomes very hot if used for more than 15-20 mins. I ordered one from Amazon. It arrived after a week, but with some dents on the topside. So I am returning the product back to Amazon. The design is great! It looks stylish (looks better than Thinkpad), not very heavy (~6 lbs), awesome screen!
A huge harddrive (60GB), good memory (512 MB RAM) but no DVD-RW drive, which is ok for me, since it has CD-RW. For a student like me, who does only weekend travels, ... Read More
Rating: - Oh lord!!
Toshiba Satellite M35-S320 doesn't dissapoint me at all. Centrino really works, allowing me to keep on working for hours. The battery can last up to 3.5 hrs and it can work well despite the heat that is building up!! have fun watching movies and playing games!!! the only bad thing: the volume is too soft whille watching movie and a bit too big and heavy!!!
