I broke down and bought a Toshiba T2000SX about a week ago, 
thinking that I wouldn't have any problems because Toshiba is 
pretty much THE name brand for laptops...  

I noticed that the real time clock seemed to be losing quite a
bit of time.  At first I wasn't certain that I hadn't just mis-set
the time, so I started keeping a log.  At 8:00am this morning,
I set the real time clock against "POPCORN".  At 8:00pm that
same evening, I checked the real time clock against "POPCORN"
and found that the clock had lost 35+ minutes.

The T2000SX was fully charged this morning, and was used about
6 hours with the charger plugged in nearly all of the time.

I tried to call Toshiba this morning to see if anyone else had
reported a similar problem, but they were closed because it was
Good Friday...  

Anybody have a similar problem?  Everything else seems to be
working just fine.
