Neither. The thread was started 6 months ago and they are both obsolete (as far as new laptops are concerned).

I`d pick a toshiba, a friend had it for 2 years until he starting dl porn.

Does downloading porn damage the toshiba?  Smiley
If it did they would be out of business by now Cheesy

I'd go with the Toshiba, don't think the SSD would effect performance as much as the better clock speed

Personally, I would always stick with apple. If your a microsoft person, it takes awhile to get a hang of it but in the end, it is much smoother.

Typical Apple user - between a choice of 2 cheaper Windows laptop, he advises the expensive ass Apple laptop

Haha, i had exactly the same thought.

No offense but Apple computers make me want to put a gun to my head and blow my brains out. Personally I love Microsoft and will never see it any other way. You may think that I am closing my eyes to the other side of the situation, that is right. I don't  care about Apple, I wouldn't eat them, Sam I am.


Also, I'd choose the second computer.

In my opinion most branded windows laptops or computers come with a lot of bloatware.

This won't harm you in the short term , but they will slow down your computer needlessly in the long run.

It is best to delete all the bloatware (Basically , useless software included with your computer when you take it out of the box) when you buy a new laptop , as it gets harder to do it later without removing useful programs.

A handy guide I'd suggest is this : http://www.maximumpc.com/article/howtos/howto_get_rid_bloatware_your_new_laptop
A word of warning, use it only if you just bought your laptop and didn't install anything yet.

It doesn't really matter whether you take the Toshiba or the Lenovo , they will be a fraction of their real speed with bloatware (But I personally think the Toshiba looks better).

Another viable option is to get laptops with lesser or no bloatware , but they are harder to find.
Quick googling leads to quite a few lists like this : http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2329276,00.asp

TLDR; The Toshiba is better , but be sure to remove bloatware or go for another bloatware free laptop

Haha, so what happened then? Do Toshiba laptops break when you download that kind of stuff? That's strayyynge man! They shouldn't even be able to tell what you're doing with them, they're machines!

Satoshi is rolling in his grave. #bitcoin
Hi, I want to buy a new laptop and campus offers 2 models at a fairly good price (compared to the shop price in my country). The Lenovo is 749 eur, the Toshiba 729 eur. These are the models:


Lenovo Z50-70-01418
15,6", Intel Core i7-4510U, 8GB, 1TB SSHD, NVIDIA GeForce GT 840M, DVD
(processor has got 2 cores and clock speed of 2 GHz and boost 3.1 GHz; and has SSHD and full HD)
http://www.campusshop.be/zcs-01/80032282/lenovo-z50-70-01418/details.aspx

Toshiba Satellite L50-A-1C7
15,6", Intel Core i7-4700MQ, 8GB, 1TB, NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M, DVD
(processor has got 4 cores and clock speed of 2.4 GHz and boost 3.4 GHz; has HDD)
http://www.campusshop.be/zcs-01/80016052/toshiba-satellite-l50-a-1c7/details.aspx


(i'm sorry, couldn't find an english version of the site)

Specs look nearly the same, but I'm absolutely no expert when it comes to GPU and CPU so i'm not sure. I don't need a laptop for mining but I want a moderate/good performer on all levels (graphics and speed; gaming and basic programs...). Which laptop looks like the best buy ? Which one looks like the best performer and which of these 2 brands is the most recommended in general ?

Thanks in advance !

I had two toshiba laptops so far, nothing but the best about them,
even the specs are a bit better on toshiba than they are on dell.
If i may ask, why 15,6'' ? Doesnt that seam too small, or do you prefer smaller screens due to lower weight ?!

I choose Toshiba because of the brand and because of its specifications.
