Reviews for the Toshiba Satellite Pro L20
Source: PC Pro

A lot of laptop for the money, with reasonable performance and solid build quality. It still isn't enough to trump the current A-List incumbent, though. Adverts for alarmingly cheap notebooks are everywhere these days. And while it isn't yet true that notebooks are now outselling desktops, some of the prices we're seeing show that it really is war out there. Toshiba's latest foray into the market, the Pro L20, is one of the cheapest we've seen. Coming in a variety of configurations, we found the lowest-specified model for just �392 exc VAT.

ATI Radeon Xpress 200M: ATI Radeon Xpress 200M is the shared memory integrated graphic card from ATI based on a X300 core. In general it is a bit faster than the Intel GMA 950 graphic core.
These graphics cards are not suited for Windows 3D games. Office and Internet surfing however is possible.

Intel Pentium M: With Intel chip set (855 or 915) and Intel WLAN also available with the name Centrino (name for the package).
In the comparison very fast per megahertz and very modest with weaknesses in floating point operations.
It is also available as a low voltage version with very small current consumption.

15.1": 15 inch display-variants are the standard and are used for more than the half of all notebooks. The 15.1 inch display is used for the 4:3 format and therefore nowadays hardly used and replaced by 15.4 and 15.6 inch formats. The 4:3 format does not have explicitely disadvantages, rather it is a question of taste. When TV-watching on the notebook it is decisive, in which format the current programm is offered. The reason why so many people like displays with medium size is, that this size is not exhausting for the eyes, does not need too much energy and the laptops can be kept quite compact.

2.7 kg: This notebook is lighter than the average of all notebooks. It is too heavy for sub-notebooks. 14 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.
