Maybe just a coincidence but we use three Ts in our organization. Two have already broken (one mainboard, the other graphic card), the third one works but issues sudden, irregular beeps which Toshiba has been _unable_ to diagnose for 6 months now! They tell us that since it works, then it is nothing serious. I get rather mad when I hear that only because we didn't get a second-hand unit but a brand new one and I would expect it to shut up and work since it is new and T. We're a bit discouraged at the moment with Toshiba. -- Zbigniew Szalbot
