Toshiba Qosmio X505-Q850
$1,900.00
Released January, 2009
The Pros:Speakers are fairly loud for a laptop. Battery lasts a reasonable amount of time before it needs a charge. Keyboard looks beautiful, nice finish on it, and is comfortably laid out.
The Cons:Doesn't always get a strong WiFi connection, depends on the router. Glossy black finish is a fingerprint magnet, needs constant cleaning. Fairly heavy construction, a bit of a burden to carry around.
