Pros: That screen, thin, reasonably light, and of course, that screen
Cons: About a half pound too heavy
Summary: First off, I reviewed the Portege 7000CT, which with the exception of one very important aspect, is largely identical. Sure, the 7020 is 100MHz faster, has a faster cache design and comes with 64MB ram and a 6GB drive as opposed to the 32MB and 4GB of ... read more

Pros: Lightweight
Cons: Over heats poor ventilation
Summary: My entire sales force of a thousand plus had been given the Toshiba Portege 7020s. At first everyone was elated with the new sleek lightweight machines. It did not take long for the guys and gals to lose "that loving feeling." The lightweight sleek ... read more

Pros: Size, screen, performance, durability
Cons: Docking dongle, price, price
Summary: I've owned four Toshiba laptops and this is the best one yet. Light, super usable, great screen and good performance for a PII.
People who should buy this (or later Portege 7000 series models) want the light weight of a sub-notebook but not ... read more

Pros: The size and the weight
Cons: Instability, Frequent hardware and software crashes,noise,the battery life span.
Summary: I bought the laptop for work, and home use. As a truck driver I found out right at the first the battery life span was to short, in 2 to 3 hours it was dead. And no use to me, so I had to buy a car adaptor and keep it plugged in and throw the battery ... read more

Pros: thin, lightweight, nice dock
Cons: flimsy and slow
Summary: As a preface to this review, I have owned and used a number of other ultralites: IBM Thinkpad 560X, HP Omnibook 900 and a HP Sojourn. I will make comparisons where helpful.
I found the Toshiba 7020CT to be unimpressive. My criteria for any ... read more

Pros: Very stable, Fast, Light, Looks cool
Cons: Only comes with 64MB std., shorter battery life, expensive accesories
Summary: I have been using my Portege for almost a year now, and I can honestly say that it is truly an amazing computer. The stability of the system is one of the best aspects of the computer. Toshiba really deserves credit for configuring a top-notch NT 4 ... read more

Pros: compact size, performance
Cons: docking station, modem flap
Summary: We have used the 7020 exclusively at work for about a year. While our users love the size/performance ratio of the Portege, it has become a tech support nightmare. Let's face it... getting good performance out of a laptop is relatively easy. The hard ... read more

Pros: Light & Durable, nice LCD with good keyboard
Cons: Docking station does not support 1280x1024 @ 75HZ
Summary: This is a very light and small laptop that still packs a fair amount of power and has a nice docking station. A much improved version of the 7010 with more power and most important a larger LCD with 1024x768 resolution
I liked:

Pros: lightweight, docking station, DVD, peripherals available
Cons: price, sometimes freezes (but rarely lately)
Summary: I have been using Toshiba laptops for years. This is my latest. I love the 7020 for a few distinguishing features; and find it's design lacking for only a few others. So, here goes:
1) The portability and lightweight nature of the laptop (without ... read more

Pros: Light, beautiful screen
Cons: Keyboard not as good as IBM
Summary: Not a perfect machine, though its annoyances are not major. I would look at the IBM 570 also before making a final decision. However, I should mention that I got the Portege as an ex-demo machine at a very keen price - around USD1800, including CDROM ... read more

Pros: Great size and form factor
Cons: Docking station has some annoying quirks
Summary: I have been using the Portege 7020CT now for about 9 months. It's a real mixed bag. I love the form factor and small size/weight - I still get ooh's and ah's when I pull it out on a plane. I did an enormous amount of searching to find the most powerful ... read more

Pros: Light, efficient, and DVD Docking station plays great quality video directly to screen or TV
Cons: Poor interoperability with docking station, suspend/resume issues as well
Summary: The 7020 + DVD Docking station is fast and light, but still has a few issues which you should be aware of before you purchase. First of all, I would highly recommend the memory upgrade to 128MB. Running Win98, NT, or Win2K on 64MB of RAM is manageable, ... read more

Pros: Very small and light. Lots of power for the size.
Cons: Cheap keyboard, no PC card hotswap.
Summary: I go through a lot of laptops. As an IT manager, it falls to me to evaluate hardware before we pass it on to our users. In the recent past, I've used the IBM Thinkpad 600e, the HP Omnibook 4150, and currently the Toshiba Portege 7020. So far, the Toshiba ... read more
