Toshiba Satellite M105-S3011

 

The notebook's speakers support SRS TruSurround sound technology, which makes music and movies sound especially good for a laptop. The M105-S3011 has several media buttons for DVD playback, including buttons for play/pause, stop, rewind, and fast...

Lighweight. Bright display. 100GB hard drive. Good speakers

Needs more memory

If you're looking for a lightweight, affordable notebook with dual-core technology, the Satellite is perfect for you. (Just upgrade the RAM.)

Toshiba Satellite M105 Laptop

 

Choosing a laptop PC always involves compromises. Size or portability? Speed or cost? Work or fun? Toshiba's M105 model in the Satellite line is also not without compromises, but it handles them well and ends up being a computer that will be compatible...

I found the system fairly speedy with standard applications such as image managers, games and video editing. At about five pounds, it's not ultra portable, but it's reasonably light. Ultra light laptops just aren't as well featured, and they tend to...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Nice little notebook

 

Load Windows XP Pro SP2 - add a 2GB memory module - tweak the energy settings for low power consumption and you'll have a nice quiet, cool running little laptop. Be sure and load the Toshiba utilities - they are pretty slick.

Good value - good functionality - keyboard feels great - touchpad is crisp - lots of little feature buttons available to the user - very quiet - runs cool enough - superior screen quality - intel chipset hibernates well - superior battery life

HDD is front and center which isn't comfortable because it gets warm - orange glowing wi-fi light is annoying because it's right in your face - obtaining updated software directly from Toshiba's site is a challenge because they don't allow you to...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Very Nice!

 

Overall this is an excellent and powerful computer. Too many people writing reviews say that the computer is too slow, when they simply forget to delete the pre-installed software. I wish toshiba wouldn't have looked over the small things like the USB...

Portable ; Powerful ; Reliable (toshiba is an excellent brand) ; Nice Keyboard ; Decent battery life (roughly 2.5 hours)

Sound isn't great ; usb placement (2 on the front right: who wants usb cables sticking out where you place your mouse?) ; no expansion port for docking station

Great return of your money-MS105-S3084

 

blazing speed, lot of storage space, DVD multidrive, theft protection, true brite screen....still need more?

Could be little bit lighter, even though 5.4 is not bad.
