PCWorld: Review – Toshiba Satellite E205-S1904 Laptop

The wireless display capability works well but this reviewer didn’t like the ergonomics of the keyboard and pointing device and describes the $900 Core i5 laptop as ‘average.’


“The Toshiba Satellite E205-S1904 all-purpose laptop, currently a Best Buy exclusive priced at just under $900 (as of March 17, 2010), offers some nifty features, such as the option to connect the laptop’s display to your HDTV wirelessly through an HDMI-equipped peripheral. Unfortunately, it’s hobbled by a poor keyboard layout, mediocre audio, and terrible ergonomics.

At first blush, the feature set is appealing. The system includes a Core i5 430M CPU with a base clock speed of 2.26GHz, plus 4GB of DDR3 memory. Housed in a sleek, relatively thin blue plastic chassis, the laptop comes with Windows 7 Home Premium, a built-in Webcam, and 802.11n wireless networking.”
