Advantages: Solid Build, Strong Performance, Touch Pad
Disadvantages: Heavy, Over-heats, Only 2 USB ports.

...with you. So, I was very interested to find out that nowadays, there are laptops that are specifically designed to ?replace? a desktop for those who want the space saving feature and would only need to take their laptop anywhere on the odd occasion. This means that the manufacturer can be less bothered about the weight of the machine and make it much more like the normal home system that the desktop has catered for in the past! Enter the Toshiba Satellite Pro A30. I hate to admit it, but the main thing that drew me to this model in the shop was the fact that its case is metallic dark blue. It really did stand out from the rest and I think it is a very classy looking machine. At the time I bought it, the RRP was about £1200 however Curries were selling it for £1000, so it looked even better value next to similar spec machines which...

Review of Toshiba Satellite Pro A30

Quality Laptop

Advantages: Fast Computer
Disadvantages: Not good for games

...'t care much for how my laptop looks, but this looks quite nice. It's not going to win any awards for the way it looks, but it's not horribly looking. There is a huge advert style sticker on the wrist rest when you get it. I tried taking this off, quite a challenge to get all the sticky stuff off. But it is an annoying addition. ----------------------------------------------- Processing Power and Hardware ----------------------------------------------- This is where the strength of the A30 714 lies. It has an Intel Mobile P4 processor running at 3Ghz. The mobile chip means it's designed to be used from a battery and in a laptop. You wont get the over heating problems that you might with a standard processor which some laptops have in them. Using Intel instead of AMD means that the machine will be faster and more reliable. However...

Review of Toshiba Satellite A30 - 714

The need for speed ... and here it is

Advantages: Fast 3.05GHz Processor
Disadvantages: Shared memory with graphics card

...The Toshiba A30 seems to have a number of configurations depending on where you buy it. The various specifications differ and are exclusive to whoever is promoting that model at the time. For example PC world had one system that featured a 40gb hard disk drive and 256mb RAM. DABS.com had the same system but with a 60gb hard disk drive and 512mb RAM listed under a different product code. All were Toshiba A30 but the last 3 digits depended on the seller, it seems. Anyway, this particular system is the Toshiba Satellite A30-614 and I've just purchased it from DABS.com, the on-line computer and electrical store. I purchase most of my computer related stuff from DABS because their prices are very low compared to the high street. I already own a couple of notebook computers but they are sluggish compared to what is...

Satellite station

Advantages: superb clarity, great sound, fast and responsive, well made
Disadvantages: very heavy

...Yesterday was a busy day, I received a visit from a nice guy from IT who set up a remote log in to the works IT network for me and delivered a laptop for my work use. I was expecting a battered second hand Dell but what I have is way past any expectations. I have this gorgeous Toshiba whose capabilities totally outclass any needs I have. At my stuttering screeching request of ?has this come out of my budget? I was informed that, no, it had been ordered by some other manager who had left before even receiving it and had been surplus to requirements. Well every cloud has a silver lining and it will be a splendid addition to my unit when im able to get back to work ,and much as I would like to discuss the NHS and its superb ability to let staff waste its money I?ll restrain myself and get down to the details.

recovering the satellites

Advantages: Amazing!!!
Disadvantages: The song mecury

...Recovering the satellites is the second album from counting crows. Counting crows have a very unique style, you really cannot but your finger on it, its not quite country, but its not quite rock and its not quite punk. The best way to describe it is Beefed up classical rock, which you can listen to what ever mood that you may be in. The album its self is very good with some amazing guitaring and packed with lyrics which really do have a meaning and quite often make you think. The case for the album is a dark green with what looks like a shooting star which is hung up between to buildings and the counting crows logo printed on the top. The track names on the back of the album are very small and kind of hard to read, although you can read the track titles on the inlay. The inlay of the album is truly outstanding. It has all...

Review of Recovering The Satellites - Counting Crows

Typical Toshiba

Advantages: Ease of use, memory capacity
Disadvantages: Quality, feel, value for money

...The Toshiba Satellite L500 is the same as most other toshiba laptops. It looks stylish and can do all the basic functions that you would want for a laptop. However, when you use it, you dont feel very comfortable because it feels very cheap. The keyboard is very flimsy and feels like it is about to break every time you type something and the mouse pad and buttons do not respond well. However, the number pad on the right hand side of the keyboard is great as it makes it so easy to type numbers. You can buy this laptop with a range of processors and sizes of harddrive so you can choose the one which suits you best. The display is actually very good but the battery life could have been improved. On my model it will last for a maximum of 2.5 hours on its lowest power setting. Overall, this laptop is reasonable at most things but not...

Review of Toshiba Satellite L500

Satellite System

Advantages: High performance, good reliability
Disadvantages: Low battery life

...I've just started university (well, I'm coming up to the end of my second term) and so when I was buying the things I needed, I thought it would be handy to have a laptop to take to lectures, especially seeing as my desktop PC is as old as the universe and that would allow my laptop to double up as a home PC. Now I know a fair bit about computers, so I'm not going to end up being sold a rubbish system. It also means that I have a very specific set of requirements. Having weighed up the options available to me, I eventually went for the Toshiba Satellite P30-133. LOOKS The Satellite largely looks the same as any other laptop, the difference being the colour on the cover. The whole top is red and I think that's the colour you have to have (although I could be wrong - obviously I haven't been to every shop in the world that retails...
