...decided to go for a Toshiba as it has been a trustworthy brand for us over the years. Curry's,electrical store, was near it's early Sunday closing time, by the time we had decided on our purchase. Now I shall cut a long story short and explain that many of the laptops on sale in Currys were classed as 'Previously used' As the assistant explained that these may have been returned to the store unopened we thought we would go for one of these. However ... ...toy' had arrived.
The Toshiba A200 has a matte black base and a shiny, black lid with TOSHIBA in silver across it.In fact the top could be a very dark blue which is almost black. The first problem was how to open it.

We especially wanted this dual core model so that ...

Review of Toshiba Satellite Pro A200
Advantages: Speed, comfortabe, cheap. Disadvantages: No webcam built-in.
The Toshiba brand has always been noted with mass gratitude for solid and robust piece-of-art laptops and particularity, the Satellite Pro A200 is not an odd exception, not a disappointment.
The Satellite Pro offers Intel new processor technology as far as concerned. This advantage gives the user open options for use of softwares and applications compatible with the new technology of duo-core. Still the duo-core processors are robust, at least 1.5GHZ ... ...users.
This notebook has its Toshiba manufactured hard disk, well known for being solid and long life.
The design of coated screen is classic and gives a great look with the new windows vista interface. The touchpad is just a tad too small given all the unutilised space above the keyboard where the speakers and quick launch buttons live.
The left hand side of the chassis houses your video options with VGA and S-Video out, Ethernet port, two USB ...

Quick review of Toshiba Satellite Pro A200
It's worth buying as I use it almost everyday. It has a duo processor, Vista window which is easy to use. Nice bright widescreen 15.4. My son loves it because it is pretty fast when he is playing games.
The only problem I have is the battery recharge which only lasts 1 hour. I would buy a longer lasting battery to make it more portable, when on the move. ...

Advantages: Great look, easy to travel Disadvantages: Wireless connection has it downfalls

The Satellite Pro is not too bulky, and is lightweight. Downloading on a wireless network, is is fine (most of the time). The screen size is of comfort, showing DVD's in a great quality. The look is sleak, neat and comfortable to work on. It is neat and light enough for ...
