Bought my first laptop the other day. Toshiba sent me an email about some deals on laptops. With the new pads coming to market I guess they need to unload some archaic laptops. This one has a 15" HD screen with a big drive, 4 gigs memory, R/W DVD, wireless, multiple ports running Windows 7 64 bit. Never used that version before, still runing Vista on this one. The computer will be used to record images from an astrophotography camera attached to a 12" Meade S/C using MaximDL software. The computer was less than $300 but included a shipping fee of $25; from where? The computer weighs 4 lbs. Turns out the computer was shipped from Shanghai AND they charged me $25 sales tax?? I am paying Chinese sales tax?
