Advantages: screen size, overall features
Disadvantages: price

...This review is for the Toshiba Satellite Pro m30 Harman Kardon styled laptop.I will not say what I paid as it was a special price and not generally available. I have had this laptop for approx. 9 months. I use this laptop mainly for wireless connection to the WWW from my lounge, I am writing this review on it now. The first things I look for in a laptop or a desktop come to that is how it interfaces with me rather than performance. This laptop is good. The screen is 15".4" and is superb except when outdoors in the sun but then that is to be expected. There is quite a lot of brightness control to suit most people. The characters are clear and crisp, it is not as good as a high quality CRT monitor but that is also to be expected. The keyboard is also good and although I am not a great fan of laptop keyboards I get on well... Read review

Advantages: Sturdy design Nice Blue colour Get a lot for your money
Disadvantages: Overheating/crashing problems experienced Memory upgrade was necessary Required a lot of tweaking to get 'right'

...The Toshiba Satellite Pro A60 laptop is ideal for entry level home users, and possibly students who have some time on their hands to sort stuff out. I wouldn't say it was suitable for the lower end of the business market, as Toshiba seem to be targeting with this product. I could be wrong however, maybe I was just unlucky! I have had mine for 8 months now, after previous satellite old faithful, which I had owned for about 7 years, gave up the ghost in the middle of a project, and I needed a cheap laptop quickly. I was impressed by the blue design which veers away from the boring black/grey you're used to seeing on the budget end notebooks. For the budget it was a toss up between this or a Dell, and in the end I decided to go for the Tosh which wasn't the bottom end of the scale like the Dell was for the same money. Due... Read review

Advantages: Fairly Cheap, stylish and looks good
Disadvantages: Battery life not amazing

...my laptop, the only thing I didn't appreciate was all the stickers over the inside (to the left of the mouse pad), there is a "Desiged for XP" sticker, and "Intel Inside" sticker, one "Bundled with MS OneNote 2003" and a final "Surround Sound" which personally I dont like (hense I removed the last two) I have recomended this laptop to other people who have been looking, Toshiba have many different spec's in the Satellite Pro models, and the final thing about this laptop, the name, "what laptop do you have?" There is nothing more I love saying then "a Satellite Pro"... Read review

Advantages: very powerful fulfil's all your basic needs and then some
Disadvantages: screen can be annoying after a while, battery life only three hours.

...Toshiba are a very strong company in regards to their history of building notebooks. They are well established as robust and durable notebooks when dealing with business uses. The Toshiba I personally own I bought from ebay. It was extremely good value and I looked hard for a well specified machine. Buying direct from the Toshiba website would have actually cost me an additional $200 or so, and more importantly for a lower end machine. The beauty behind the Toshiba that I find makes it such a simple machine to use it comprise of basically three main aspects. The notebook comes with rescue disks that if everything goes wrong and you end up formatting the machine all teh factory defaults can be restored within an instant from the provided CD's. My machine came with Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows 98 SE. Giving me amazing... Read review

...The Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 Laptop Computer is a good reliable workhorse and I have been using mine most days for the last two years. >>> General Description <<< At the front of the computer is a display latch. Sliding this to one side allows the display panel to hinge up to set the screen to your desired angle and to reveal the keyboard. At the front of the computer there are built in stereo speakers and some system indicators to show the status of the DC in, Power, Battery, built in Hard Disk drive and Diskette / CD ROM drive.

Advantages: Fast, lots of features, easy to use
Disadvantages: Problems with internal modem, infra red port has short range

...The Toshiba satellite m30 pro is a thin and sleek laptop matching the looks and requirements for todays busy and on the move users. It is literally a desktop computer packed into a small, light and easy to use 1.6GHZ, 60 Gb memory HDD and 512 MB RAM machine. I have found it not only easy to use but also fun and hassle free most of the time.

Advantages: value for money
Disadvantages: getting older

...versatile and have had no problems with breaking the casing ect. The Laptop comes with it own built in support to acess this you need to be conected to the internet. this is very good and a fast way of sorting out any problems. The built in mouse is hard to use at first but after a period of time it become second nature. However it has a tenancy to move the curser about when you are not using it which is annoying. The laptop has a 15” screen I really like this as I use it to watch DVD when im travelling. It great and is a good way to kill journey time Toshiba off the buyers of this product a one year warranty. I would however recommend that you take out a 3 or 5 year grantee. It is worth the extra expense for the peace of mind. NOTE – repairs for laptops are more costly than repairs for desktops Only fault I have... Read review

Advantages: Fast processor, decent display
Disadvantages: Heavy, cumbersome and HOT!

...televisions, videos, DVD players, fax machines and even air conditioning systems. The company currently manufacture the following range of laptops: Portege - Ultra portable, high performance specification - with prices to match. Satellite - cheaper, chunkier range targeted at small office or personal users Satellite Pro - Higher spec Satellite models, targeted at small and medium sized business users Tecra - Corporate platform models - top of the range laptops. The model that I had was the Satellite Pro 4600. It is worth noting that the specification of this model can vary considerably (as will the price) - I can obviously only comment on the specifications of the one I received. My 4600 came complete with a (noisy) CD-Rom drive (DVD-Roms and CD Re-Writers are an available option) and an integral 56k PSTN modem. Wireless LAN... Read review
