Toshiba Qosmio G20 widescreen media laptop reviewed

 

We love the specs of the Toshiba Qosmio G20 (who couldn't'): 17-inch WXGA display, 1.73/1.86GHz Pentium M processor, 128MB GeForce 6600, 160/200GB HDD, 512MB RAM standard and a TV tuner. Unfortunately, according to Geekzone's review, those features...

Second backlight, TV tuner, Linux-based media player, virtual surround sound

Expensive

The unique Qosmio G20 goes a long way to justifying its price with home entertainment features to die for.

Toshiba Qosmio G20

 

A 17in widescreen and Media Center 2005 make the Qosmio G20 a multimedia powerhouse. But is it good?

PC Plus review: Toshiba Qosmio G20-105

 

This notebook is very good at what it does. It's big enough and heavy enough to have us wondering whether a conventional mini-PC wouldn't be a better bet though.

Toshiba Qosmio G20 Laptop

 

When it comes to notebooks specifically for the living room, there are very few companies that come close to the various offerings from Toshiba in the last two years. The initial Qosmio, released in 2004, tried to be more than a simple laptop but tried...

Dual hard drives, TV tuner, large screen

Expensive, heavy

If you really want to make a statement in the living room, the Toshiba Qosmio G20 is the one you want to be making it with. When you’re not using it as the hub of your entertainment system, you can even do some extra work on it - after all, you’ll need...

Toshiba Qosmio G20 review

 

The Qosmio G20 is a true home entertainment system. Read more to find our thoughts on this notebook.

Huge screen for a notebook ; Well integrated unit ; Impressive hardware features ; Great expansion capabilities with lots of ports ; Can play CD and DVD without booting into Windows

Heavy ; Can't comfortably be used in small spaces – like an airplane ; No Windows XP Media Center Edition in New Zealand until late 2005 ; Windows XP Home Edition - it should be at least Windows XP Pro if MCE is not available ; Battery power not enough...

Like other Toshiba notebooks, the Qosmio G20 also comes with ConfigFree, a software that helps users manage and diagnose network connections.
