| antennaball's Full Review: Toshiba Satellite P25-S507 (PSP20U-00VY3V) PC Note... |
I've had this one for a few weeks and can say that it's done everything I've thrown at it. A surprisingly fast 2.8 GHz processor with a speedy bus, means fast operations generally. Having everything in one piece (as opposed to the desktop tower, the monitor, the mouse and keyboard cables, etc., helps a lot. The screen is huge and very nice indeed. I think Toshiba (and HP, and Sager) have stumbled on a brand new market niche. I read that they sold more than 4 times expectations with this model. It's already been discontinued and replaced, but the new model (as of 10/1/03) is not a huge upgrade. There may be a new model that is a significant upgrade around mid-month, is what I hear.
But why wait? This is plenty fast for almost everything you'll ever want to do. Hard core gamers may take exception to the video card, and you might want to add another 512 of memory. But otherwise this baby just shines on.
Highest recommendation.
