Toshiba Satellite L25 Review
Toshiba's Satellite L25-S119 is a laptop aimed at the budget-conscious user (costing a little over desktop models), offering Celeron M processor. The screen is very good, offering 15" LCD TFT display richness in XGA resolution.
The performance suffers largely due to the less amount of RAM, and laughable battery life. Bundled software include MS Works, and OneNote. It performs just okay in the multimedia department.
Pros: Good display, Inexpensive
Cons: Battery
Features include:
256MB RAM / 60 GB IDE Hard Disk Drive / 5400 RPM / ATI Video, Ethernet (10/100 Mbps) Network support/ 802.11b 802.11g Wireless protocol, RGB (monitor) port 3 Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports(v2.0) TV-out (S-Video), External Microphone Jack, Headphone Jack, RJ-45 LAN Port, RJ-11 Modem Port, Dimensions (WxHxD):13.1 x 1.4 x 10.6 inches.
