Despite the popularity of the netbook increasing, but the market for a laptop with a traditional size above 14 inches are still a segregated market. This usually is not important Portability affairs but more focus on the mission instead of a powerful PC. One of the new pledge class in the Toshiba Qosmio G50 is is-115. From the size, the Qosmio G50-115 are far from portable impression. With a screen measuring 18.4 inches, this laptop is too difficult to take-take. But the mission as a PC is required here. Laptop is not only large size alone, the ability to store the capacity of this laptop is also commensurate with the size large. Installed in this laptop processors Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 2.26 GHz with up to 4GB memory capacity. To save the selected media 2 hard disk with a capacity of 250GB each. With this configuration, it is clear this laptop computing capability comparable with a PC that is considered better than the performance laptop. Views outside the laptop is also seen strong and luxurious. Silver color with a touch of the line stretch out to create the impression that the stronger the luxury. Elegant impression is still maintained in the interior of this laptop. With the size of a standard keyboard styled with a slightly wider distance space to reduce the possibility of the key depressed accidentally. Similar design is already applied in many laptop output last. However, this design still retains the form of a keyboard button and do not try to apply the design of the button that looks like a calculator used many other producers. Overall, both performance and design Qosmio G50-115 is quite satisfactory.
