The poll would have been better if the home and business lines were separated. Anyways, I voted for 'I like'. I have a Portege R835-P84, it's a 13.3'/i5-2435m/8gb/256gbssd/dvdrw/intel6230(wifi+BT)/63Wh flush 6cell battery.
Even before my upgrades (ram/ssd/wifi+bt), it was a good laptop for sure. The build quality is great, or it could be that it's fool proof to assemble the laptop. Very sturdy magnesium alloy inside out, battery lasts 8 hours on normal internet surfing, no heat at all for normal internet, and it weights only 3.2 lb.
The price was $480 for me from the recent Officemax sale. It does heat up to 95C if I run prime95 for over a minute, so I think this laptop is not for hard core users, but very good for instant boosts of speed as a normal voltage cpu equipped laptop. It's very quiet and cool on normal usage, or using on eco mode. I'd take this any day over i5-2467m (the ultra low voltage ones) equipped Ultrabooks. They both use about the same amount of power if the cpu is throttled. Bad thing about this laptop is the keyboard is a little short so it takes some time to get used to.
The chrome hinge cover is what makes this laptop look cheap. I really don't understand who decided to put a chrome hinge cover. It seriously ruins the perfect understated professional look of this laptop. The heat management capacity is a little weak that it can't take on all the heat if cpu is loaded 100% for longer than a minute.
Again, it's perfectly fine for normal use (anything but prolonged cpu intensive stuff). The webcam sucks in low light, and it's only a 640.480. The mouse button is hard to click. The screen viewing angle is only average, and the screen doesn't open all the way to 180 degree (I want it to go a little further so I can use it comfy in the toilet). I own many different notebooks, also a Toshiba P750 (bought one month ago).

It is not bad, casing is robust, fan is most time quiet (I do no games), processor is an i7 which is more then enough for the things I do. But there are two big issues: Screen is bad: contrast and color gamut are disappointing. Sure, most other notebooks also have no better screens but I did expect a better display at this price. It has a bad smell: Each time the fan starts, it blows a cloud of chemical malodor out of the machine. I have tested it with some people: some do not smell the odor but some appoved my experience.
This is may first notebook ever where I could notice this smell. Then I looked at greenpeace and here I could see it: Toshiba is one of the worst ranked computer manufacturers. So I am not surprised to smell the chemicals which are used in the notebook. So overall I do not like it. Anyone else know why the Toshiba section is so quiet? I mean, Toshiba has been around waaay longer than any of these other crap companies yet they're hardly noticed outside the average consumer.

I expected to see a throng of threads repeatedly accessed when I got here, and I was happy to see I wasn't the ONLY person who knew about the Qosmio (OCN people know about Sager, ASUS, and Alienware. Not even Malibal or Mythologic or MSI or any of the others really.), but I was disappointed outside of that. I love Toshiba. Had three machines in the past that have worked wonders and this one doesn't do anything except bolster my faith in the company. They make great products. I just wish people would see that.
