Toshiba's Tecra 8100 series notebooks make it easier and more economical to handle your company's changing portable computer needs because they share the same motherboard, chassis and software image, and support a wide variety of accessories and docking solutions. Furthermore, you only need to qualify them once, no matter how many notebooks you need. You'd be hard-pressed to find another notebook series that offers such versatility at such a manageable cost. No matter what business you're in, the Tecra 8100 series notebooks are built to accommodate a wide range of functions, from CAD/CAM to network management and beyond. And because it's from Toshiba, you still get all the bells and whistles along with it. It's the best of both worlds.
