Now everything comes with 1366x768 (yes even 15", brrr!) and I feel all the manufacturers can get away with it just because they can slap a HD label on this absymal resolution and the consumers lap it up thinking "HD? surely good!" I am sure the Toshiba is a fine machine, I used several Porteges during the years and they were great. I feel that this is like a cancer which eats away any really usable screen, however.
Agreed with this point. Dell Latitudes could come with a variety of screens and 15" with 1600x1050. Now if one wants a good screen you have to go Apple, which is what I did. Too bad for Dell. Plus, gloss has no use in a business environment.
