Check the fine print...

99% of time, a US MIR stipulates a US address, so to be on the safe side, I would give a US address, unless i'm 100 % sure...........

To be honest I ve liked this (Toshiba) over HP reason - I m taken in by the white keyboard looks and I ve seldom heard bad about Toshiba . Plus the good price . I am honestly looking into this option also.

Tosibha's quality has gone downhill recently... lots of laptops was having serious problems with poor design, excess noise/humming/ faulty motherboard etc... there was even a classaction suit against them recently and tosibha settled it out of court by giving everybody a certain amount back and extended their warranties (in US)... So personally I wouldnt touch a Tosibha now, as i've personally seen a lot of problems recently...

But, thats my opinion only...

And Look here too (Vostro's are good business class machines): http://www.dell.com/content/topics/topic.aspx/us/segments/bsd/odg/black_friday_cust?c=us&l=en&s=bsd&dgc=EM&cid=26047&lid=591932

Anyway, do you have a preference for glossy/matte screens...matte screens are good for eyes, glossy screens are good for watching movies, but since they reflect light, are not so good for working outdoors, since it reflects light more and can strain ur eyes.
