On the second---do NOT get a goddamn Lenovo. I don't know how long your boss has had it, Av...but even if you strip it of almost everything it comes with, it has pain-in-the-ass shit you can't get rid of, and stacks up more pains-in-the-ass over time.
Haha, now that you mention it, I heard him bitching about it just yesterday.
Wouldn't an immediate format and clean install sort that out though?

Partially yes, although not just start-up stuff. Basically all the "proprietary" junk that manufacturers pre-load a machine with, supposedly to give you better functionality, but yes, really to slow things down, report back to them, etc. etc.
I don't do laptops myself, and I build all my PC's from scratch (it's cheaper) so I never suffer from it, but pre-loaded laptops are notorious for it, no matter what you buy.
The Toshiba looks pretty good, but guaranteed it will be loaded with Toshiba junk and "management" programs etc.
