Toshiba Satellite U405-S2830

Toshiba Satellite U405-S2830
Front Back Open Right Side

REVIEW

In adding a fresh new face to its Satellite line, Toshiba engineers spent the long winter months focused on industrial design. Just in time for the warm weather, the company has rolled out the sleek byproduct of that toil. The Toshiba Satellite U405-S2830 is dressed up in what Toshiba calls its Fusion finish. While the technique of fusing decorative patterns with glossy laminates isn't new in the laptop world, the U405's look is bound to entice media enthusiasts and college-bound students. It also doesn't hurt that this 4.7-pound portable integrates Intel's finest technology and has a starting price of only $1,149 (direct).
