Toshiba Satellites

Toshiba Satellites are a series of affordable and powerful laptops from Toshiba. These laptop computers are easily portable and yet powerful enough to serve as a desktop replacement. Models of the series vary by features and size, and range from the Satellite T115 with an 11.6-inch LCD for ultimate mobility, to the high performance Toshiba Satellite P500, with an 18.4-inch LCD monitor.

Of the Toshiba Satellites, perhaps the best combination of size, price, and specifications is the Toshiba A500. The Toshiba Satellite A500 is resourceful enough to function as a business computer at work, in the classroom and in the home as well. All Toshiba Satellites in the A500 model come with an extended life battery, a numeric keypad, a DVD drive, USB ports, expansion slots, and a 16-inch LCD monitor active matrix back light display.



Of the A500s, the A500-ST56X7 is an excellent choice. This model of the Toshiba Satellites series comes with a 2.26 GHz Intel i5 -430M Dual Core Processor, complete with Intel's Hyper-Threading Technology, for an efficient and powerfully fast computing experience. The A500-ST56X7 also has a 500GB internal SATA hard drive and comes with 4GB of DDR3 memory. The A500-ST56X7 comes equipped with an Intel Media Accelerator HD Graphics card with 32MB-1696MB of dynamically allocated shared graphics memory, which should handle most graphics intensive software without any problems.

For those seeking a more powerful computer, the A500 model comes in an upgraded version, the A500-ST56X6. This model of the Toshiba Satellites laptops has many of the same features as the A500-ST56X7, but comes with a more powerful processor and graphics card. The A500-ST56X6 features the Intel Quad Core i7-720QM Processor and an NVIDIA GeForce 310M Graphics card with 512MB GDDR3 discrete memory.

If you are looking for a wide screen monitor to serve primarily as a desktop replacement, check out the Toshiba Satellites series Model P500-ST68X2. This model has an 18.4 LCD monitor with 1680 x 945 native resolution. It also features the Intel Quad Core i7-720QM Processor and an NVIDIA GeForce 330M Graphics card with 1GB GDDR3 discrete memory.

At the other extreme in terms of size and portability is the T115D- S1120 laptop, with an 11.6-inch monitor. This model is designed to be the ultimate in portability and comes equipped with an AMD Athlon Neo Processor MV-40, 2 GB of DDR2 memory, and ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics card with 128MB-828MB dynamically allocated shared graphics memory. The SATA hard drive features 250GB of storage.
If you need a portable computer with more power, a good choice is the U500-ST5307. This model has a 13.3-inch LCD monitor, an Intel Dual Core i3-330M Processor, and an Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD graphics card. The hard drive has 320GB of storage capacity.

All the Toshiba Satellites mentioned above come equipped with stereo speakers, a built in web cam and microphone for business video web conferencing or day to day socializing, and an internal wireless Network Interface Card, or NIC capable of supporting wireless 802.11b/g standards.

All the models above also feature a DVD drive, with the exception of the T115D-S1120, which is capable of attaching an external DVD drive. All models feature the Windows 7 Operating System.
