Toshiba Satellite M30 Special Edition

Friday November 19, 2004
AUD
$3699
Price at time of review.

Widescreen notebooks are the way of the future, really they are. With entertainment now proficiently done on the go, why would we go back to limited 4:3 aspect ratio? It's far easier to work on two spreadsheets concurrently in widescreen without needing to alt tab like a madman. Toshiba, like many manufacturers, has seen this need and provided such a product.

A little expensive for the offering, it falls short in the graphics department. Add a remote, up the GPU, and this could be an award winner.

Review Score 5 out of 6

In a world filled with gorgeous Sony, Apple and even Dell laptops, a sober, matte black machine aimed at consumers has to be truly special to turn heads. The IdeaPad Y430 is a well-built Centrino 2 machine that lacks nothing in the way of features, speed or value
