I've always loved Toshiba laptops. I'm running -current on a Tecra M5, which is my 3rd Toshiba. It should run -stable no problem. You'll just need to run the binary HDA driver to get sound support. And of course, SMP is much better in -current anyway (-current has always been extraordinarliy stable for me IMO). -- This .signature sanitized for your protection
