Toshiba Qosmio F10
Wednesday January 05, 2005
Toshiba
Price at time of review.
The Qosmio is the absolute pinnacle in multimedia notebooks. It brings everything you need for a good Windows XP Media Center Edition (MCE) system and squeezes it into a notebook form-factor. Albeit a large notebook form-factor. Yes the Qosmio is a huge and heavy notebook, but it's not nearly as heavy as it would have been if it was packed with desktop internals as many desknotes of this size usually are.
Not the best notebook for serious travellers, but for your more mobile couch-potatoes the Qosmio has the portability and multimedia nous to suit.
