    load of old tosh

    but like every other piece of junk with their name on it,it will be.

    b)as with most tosh shite,it will fail in use and then you have the fun of dealing with toshibas idea of customer and tech support,which is just to ignore complaints,warrentys or the law of land involved.

    would never,ever buy,sell or recommend tosh crap to anyone,not even my worst enemy,the quicker shitiba go bust the better.
