Expert review by : CNET Australia (cnet.com.au)

Toshiba Qosmio Media Center notebook

 

The Toshiba Qosmio is the first notebook to market in Australia with Windows XP Media Center onboard. Wireless mobility means that your media center can move with you - to the kitchen, outdoors, or it can even go with you on holiday.

Incredibly well equipped for just about any productivity or entertainment tasks

Large, heavy and pricey

Outlook The Qosmio notebook is a more expensive option than other new Media Center packages, but the wireless portability means potentially greater use of its functionality. If you've got a wireless network, you can stream your pictures, music and...

I bought my Qosmio F10 Model No. PQF 10A-O15008 in November 2005.I was convinced it was a good laptop to own.Unfortunately in 2008, the DVD drive was not working. When I put in a CD, it can't read it and it is not saving anything I want to save on the...

Good only for less than 4 years

Not worth the money

Fantastic computer

Has absolutely everything built into it you could need for home and business and after 3 years of ownership my F10 is still way ahead of most new computers

HEAVY! This computer is more of a desk-top laptop and at the price its much better left at home covered under extra insurance - would be expensive if it got stolen! Oh and parts are expensive - I have done a motherboard, hard-drive and powercable and...

"Fantastic Computer for the couple of weeks it lasts inbetween repairs."

 

Powerhouse, great screen, full of features

Not exactly what i'd call reliable. I've read other reviews from people saying motherboard has been replaced several times. Let me tell you I know how you feel. Everything and I mean everything has been replaced in my G10 at least once and its still...

"I've very little to complain about"

 

Has no problems managing resource intensive applications for work and play. The screen appears bigger than it is and the sound quality is good from the inbuilt speakers. TV function works well. No major problems as far as a functioning platform and got...

Remote works when it wants to, supplied cables are at wrong end of expected usage (AV in, rather than out), no cig lighter power pack yet (not really intended for super portability though), annoying built in Toshiba functions. Heavy
