An entity that is portable, low cost Worth It

Friday, July 23, 2010

First the negative: it is not portable gaming. Not working standard slow uses such as email, web and online games. We struggle to meet World of Warcraft and other local hosted games. And playable, but not so funny. Also the memory usage at low cost. I had to replace the memory Toshiba once before, when less than a year. I take out the stuff of memory problems and start surfing the pages of Ginko biloba, only reinforces the change. Black also picks up fingerprints very easily - this is a small thing, but it always seems like fat guys fingers were caressing the car. It dries quickly, but also seems to go as fast (or maybe my kids have greasy fingers caress when I'm not looking).


It was cheap and even if so this laptop. And the $ 500 laptop is pretty good. The screen is bright and clear without distortion. graphics card is priced very good and the sound is decent. Windows 7 works well with high speed access and wi-fi network to rapidly launch to check email for joy. Wi-Fi setup is simple and fast, and I've never experienced drops in the network, as I have other, more expensive laptops.

The most striking feature at this time the price is the HDMI port. It is hard to find in laptops and low-end is a bit much to have flexiblity when you want to connect to LCD or plasma TV clips Web Stream YouTube video downloads from Amazon, or simply shows / movies you missed and received via iTunes. I can not tell you how many times we used to huddle around an old laptop to see the last three minutes of a show that our TIVO / DVR cable cut because the show ended later than scheduled. Now only the laptop can connect to our LCD and watch the show.

Toshiba is also very reliable. I have been researching consumer reports, the Amazon and Epinions sites ton of other tests before committing to a laptop. All agreed that Toshiba has fewer defects than most other brands of laptops and has a lot of speed and usability benchmarks biggest magazines. If you want a notebook of work for spreadsheets and analysis of heavy, not be the laptop for you. If you have more of your work online, and often stops and starts the day (school vans, trips to the grocery store, children stop bathing, etc), then it is a very favorable starting laptop, connected quick and fast internet.
