The Toshiba Satellite A70 is a viable alternative to desktop PCs and has top-of-the-line features, a widescreen display and a fast processor.
Metallic, blue casing. Intel® Pentium® 4 Hyper-Thread CPU, a CDRW-DVD combo drive for creating your own music or home video CDs, large 15.4" WXGA screen, stereo speakers, integrated modem, wired Ethernet LAN, Parallel and 3 USB ports (USB 2 for fast connectivity). Additionally, it is fully wireless-equipped with 802.11g
The CPU (i.e. processor) is a Mobile Intel Pentium 3.06 GHz with Hyper-Threading. Hyper-Threading effectively makes it seem like you have two processors rather than just one - which means it can handle alot more applications and resource-intensive activities at one time without sacrificing performance.
Additionally, this model is known for having a "cinematic feel with crisp, clear text and immersive graphics". The screen is wider than most laptops (15.4" wide as opposed to typical 14" laptop screen) and uses the TruBrite™ Screen Technology (rendering the screen extra bright and sharp)...making it especially ideal for doing things other than simply homework- or business-related activities (e.g. watching DVDs, looking at photos, playing games, listening to music, etc.). The video card in this machine is pretty powerful as well - ATI Mobility Radeon 9000.
