    Rather a good Laptop for busi ...lawrence -- 03/07/09

    Rather a good Laptop for business!

    The good: Runs well when work! Also acceptable

    The bad: battery life is shour.and i am looking foward to ordering a backup battery. i have searched the google and found this webpage: http://www.hunt360.net/toshiba-tecra-r10-battery.htm. It is said to be One year warranty and 30 days money back! Shipping all over the world. Any good suggestion about my backup battery? Thanks sincerely

Overview

The good:
  • Fingerprint reader
  • Nvidia Quadro discrete GPU
  • Centrino 2
  • Very fast
  • Matte display
The bad:
  • Overpriced
  • Tacky design
  • Keyboard a bit too small
  • 4GB RAM wasted on 32-bit OS
  • Average battery life
The bottomline:

Despite its strong performance, the tacky design and inflated price leaves the Toshiba Tecra R10 behind the competition.

Editors’ rating:

6/10
