Bottom line: The HD DVD drive and HDMI port will bring a lot of excitement to early adopters. For the rest of us, it might be wise to wait for the next version. Pros: Abundance of A/V features. HD DVD drive. HDMI-out port to hook up external displays. 1,920-by-1,200 resolution. Cons: HD DVD read-only drive. WinDVD HD software has quirks. HDMI cable not included.

17.1": Nowadays, meanwhile the 17 inch display size is a more frequently offered standard format for desktop-replacements. 17 inch laptops are built only in 16:10 format.
The DTR-Laptops can't be carried easily, need much current, but on the other side texts can be read easily and high resolutions are no problem. DTR mainly are intended for stationary usage on desks, where the weight and the energy need are unimportant.

4.7 kg: This laptop is heavy. Especially desktop replacements with 19 inch display fit in this class of weight. This class is too heavy, even for 17 inch DTR.

Toshiba: Toshiba is one of the biggest international notebook-manufacturer. There exist many reviews for Toshiba models. The ratings of German magazines are very positive, but the relation of price and value is evaluated rather average. The ratings according the features and display are also quite well for Toshiba notebooks.
