Power-Sipping Processor

The Intel Atom processor uses a design structure that packs in 47 million transistors into a single chip sized at just 22mm (0.87 inches), and it uses just 2.5 watts of power--less than 1/10 of the 35 watts used by an Intel Core 2 Duo processor--for excellent battery management. This 1.66 GHz Atom N280 processor also includes a power-optimized front side bus of 533 MHz for faster data transfer on demanding mobile applications and a 512 KB L2 cache (which temporarily stores data).

Hard Drive Protection

While the highly portable nature of mini-notebooks exposes them to the knocks and bumps that are an inevitable feature of life on the move, the Toshiba mini NB205 features a 3D-accelerometer monitoring system that detects freefalls, shocks and vibrations and protects the integrated HDD to secure against the loss of any personal data.

Customer reviews

« Perfect for my ten-year old! »

Have had this for five months now and am very pleased to see my daughter playing on her favorite sites like webkinz, pixie hollow, etc. She loves this computer. I purchase this one based upon reviews and because it shipped with XP Home edition and not stupid Vista or Windows 7 I'm not a real OS edition:) 10" screen is perfect, key size and placement are great, battery life is very sufficient. You can burn a backup dvd of the OS but it would be better if the system came with an iso already like the asus systems. But hey, it's darn near perfect but sadly it seems no longer available;( The newer system is $70 more than what I paid for this model (I paid $180) so I'd wait 'til xmas when the deals come out.

CONS:
1. No bluetooth (but really, its for my 10 year old so who cares!),
2. Not ssd so likely more prone to breakage

« Don't waste your money »

I wish I would have spent that money on a REAL laptop. When I bought it, was over 400 dollars. I really wish I had bought a real laptop for that money. I had no idea that laptops were selling so much cheaper now. This notebook is worthless. It is OK if all you want is to browse the Internet. But if you play facebook games, forget it, it lags something awful. For the price 400.00 or over, you can buy a nice laptop. The size is wonderful, but the lag makes you want to throw it on the ground and stomp on it.grrrrrr

« Long lasting battery »

I got this machine for travel and I wanted a decent sized keyboard and a long lasting battery. I got all of that and a bit more. It does all the things a notebook should and it does them well. No complaints from me because it does what I expected.

« Great Netbook for the Price »

I bought this netbook about 6 months ago. After 6 months this netbook is still running great. For the price, you can't beat it. Great for people who travel a lot and students. It easily fits on airplane trays and in college desks, unlike the more clunky laptops. The processor is speedy and the 160GB Hard Drive should be more than enough room for whatever your plans are with a netbook. It's very durable, I've dropped it a few times in class from a height of about 3 feet and haven't had any problems with it. The webcam and mic are also better than I was expecting. The video card isn't great, but that's to be expected with a netbook. Playing games isn't always possible with the integrated video card, but watching movies is no problem.

Overall great netbook, highly recommended.

« Power and style »

I'll just say this: This thing is able to run After Effects CS3, OpenOffice and Firefox simultaneously, no problem. Sapped the battery but that's a small downside to have that capability. God bless!
