An OK Laptop

Apr 16, 2008

Rating: 4 out of 10 (Mediocre)
Pros: Above average perfomence
Cons: A Laptop not meant for Lap
Opinion:
I Like this laptop but the main problem is that the intake of the CPU fan sits right over your left thigh when you use it as an lap-top - "literally". In winters it works as an heater but in summers if you keep it on your lap and try to work - YOUR LEFT THIGH GONNA ROAST because your leg blocks the intake for the CPU fan which makes the laptop very very hot. Simply considering the Indian weather condition - CARRY A FOLDING TABLE. Toshiba should still try the CPU fan configuration like in the A50 series where the CPU fan intake is at the rear left corner.

Good Value, Good Battery Life for a 15.4in Laptop

Nov 21, 2006

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Good Performance-Price Ratio, Good Battery Life
Cons: None
Opinion:
I have the New Zealand model (a100-803), it has a GeForce go 7300 rather than a ATI chip, I get better battery life than my old Pentium M Toshiba (3:45(A100) compared to 2:30(M50)), that used the same battery. I think Toshiba needs to change its whole line to Nvidia cards as they don't seem to use as much power as an equivalent ATI card.

Superbly built and fully featured

Oct 11, 2006

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Build is the best I've seen in the dozen notebooks I have owned. Touchpad is class leading.
Cons: None yet
Opinion:
I have owned Toshibas before and they were only average but this A100 is a class ahead. I have a T60 for work and the A100 is better all around and the build quality is superior. The audio is very good and I love having a DVD RAM drive. The dual function touchpad is very functional and innovative. The blue indicator lights add class and the LHS quick start buttons work well. I can't fault this notebook and find myself using it in prefernce to my T60 for work and my Asus for play.
