That is normal . I had a Toshiba Satellite A 665 3 DV 12 x and it smelled like that every day . My computer smelled more when I played games or used programs that required the GPU to run . I think I had the smell since new . Highly suggest to take it to a Toshiba support if you have warranty . If not just don ' t bother with sending it to someone . Normal Toshiba laptops . My laptop lasted for 5 years I think so and it worked until I fucked it up by opening and removing the power button connector incorrectly and breaking it so nothing related with something burning or so . If you want to get rid of the smell just FEBREZE <| sep |> I think we ' re going to see that virtually everyone stands with this sub right now . Most everyone who has ever posted anything on the net has had their comments deleted , or been variously banned , or had some of their comments edited out . To misuse administrative privilege to alter someone ' s comments to reverse their viewpoint , especially when that reversal includes redirecting personal insults , is incredibly childish and universally morally wrong . That such an egregious act is clearly visible absolutely suggests the existence of more secretive and biased wrongdoing .
