This is a good workhorse of a computer and with my model having 3GB of R.A.M is a good worker. The processor is strong with the dual core technology (2x1.8 GHz) but could be quite slow in a few years time. The processor is perfect for the sort of work I do, which is mainly using microsoft office. The only drawback is the video card which is a built-in intel 965 chipset family and this is slow and so, although ceratin games do work on this computer, such as Flight Simulator X (only on the lowest quality) and Medieval II Total War (which barely works) it is not for gamers. The 8 in one memory card reader is a good addition but i almsot lost my Memory Stick Duo in it once, before I relised it did not fit. This is, as I have already mentioned and good notebook for any medium size business or student as it does what needs to be done efficiently. it has a good built in wireless card and also a lan port and modem cable port. It has enough USB ports and it has the option to have a remote control (certain models) which is ideal for watching DVDs and with that screen it is very good. The screen is a good size and I would recommend this computer to anyone who would not game on it. I did however buy mine through the school and so the price was £1000 but this did include extras such as a mouse, carry case, insurance, 3 year warranty and other things. This is a good notebook.
P.S please leave a comment so I can improve my reviewing
Advantages: good spec for price Disadvantages: none
I accept acclimated alot of toshiba laptops over the advance of my job and i feel that with this one its one of the best i accept appear across. Out of the box with a some acceptable specs for basal lower end laptop. intel bifold amount t2370,1gb ram,100gb adamantine drive,vista basic.Had a few issues of not starting up but usually bound by demography the array out and putting it aback in again.for addition who is application this aloof for internet ... ...deejay beeline abroad that converts it to xp,as your laptop will not use as abundant assets as vista,but that is aloof my claimed preference.i reccommend upgreading the RAM to 2gb or added as angle is actual anamnesis hungry. good laptop with a nice ablaze bright awning and accessible keyboard layout. ...

Review ofToshiba Satellite Pro A300by
carice13
Its easy to use (good for me) the screen is of a great size and the keybourd is easy to use. It is small enough to take to university and not have a problem with fitting it into lecture theatres. I have allways had good faith in Toshibas.

Advantages: Useful Disadvantages: There are plenty of better models
...certainly un-suitable for gaming on as it has neither the processing speed or memory for such a venture. So a good home laptop.
PRICE GUIDE
Available from toshiba-europe.com but online there are very few stockists of this particular model.
Depending on availability I know that PCWorld, Dixons and Currys all stock Toshiba products.
The price range of the Toshiba Equium L300 Series is £350 - £400 generally.
If you cant find this particular model but are interested in other models of similar specifications here are some models that perhaps fit the bill:
ToshibaSatellitePro L300-156 (Very similar but faster processor at 1.86Ghz).
ToshibaSatelliteProA300-109 (Faster processor and double the internal memory).
ToshibaSatellitePro L300-154 (Faster processor and double memory). More hard disk.
Anyway the L300-146 model...
