Certainly running better than Vista albeit laptop could cope easily with Vista. Task bar is much neater than Vista and only test I've tried was to time start up to fully running which was 1min45sec.
I'm glad I took up Toshiba offer - will probably be charged full £27.90 that was quoted.
Clearance Bargains supplied a higher spec machine than one on eBay site - obviously having a real clear out as they sold 270 machines in total. Mine came with 3Gb ram and 320Gb drive.
For my £300 I've ended up with 17" screen and dual core Pentium 2.18 running Win7 which can't be bad.
I decided, 2 years ago, to stop sitting upstairs, at PC, and just use laptop downstairs in kitchen diner. For my purposes laptop is adequate and new machine was present to myself for year I've had medically.
