A well-equipped, high-definition multimedia notebook with Core 2 Duo horsepower and a massive amount of storage space. The Toshiba Qosmio G35-AV660 is easily one of the most robust multimedia notebooks out there.

Bottom line: HD playback is much improved since Toshiba ditched InterVideo's software and went with its own. You'll have to decide if the faster processor and extra RAM are worth the $500 price increase. Pros: Smooth HD playback with Toshiba's proprietary software. IR receiver built into the laptop. Fast Intel Core 2 Duo processor. 2GB of RAM. Cons: QosmioPlayer does not support HD playback in preboot mode. Volume has to be cranked up when using Toshiba HD DVD player. Even more expensive than before.

The good: Crisp display; complete set of A/V controls, ports, and connections, including an HD-DVD drive. The bad: Expensive; somewhat dim display; cramped keyboard and no separate number pad; bulky and heavy, even for a desktop replacement. The bottom line: The Toshiba Qosmio G35-AV660 continues to deliver the most complete multimedia experience available in a laptop, but at least one other laptop delivers similar features at a much lower price.

Comment

NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600: The NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 is a middle class video card of the 7000 series and suited for games of the year 2006. The performance is very similar to ATI X1600 / X1700. Compared to the desktop 7600 it is clearly slower.

Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

Intel Core 2 Duo: This is the Core Duo and Core Solo successor with a longer pipeline and 5-20% more speed without more power consumption. As an addition to the Core Duo design there exists a fourth decoder, an amplified SSE-unit and an additional arithmetical logical unit (ALU).

The Core 2 Duo for laptops is identical to the desktop Core 2 Duo processors but the notebook-processors work with lower voltages (0.95 to 1188 Volt) and a lower Frontside bus clock (1066 vs 667 MHz). The performance of equally clocked notebooks is 20-25% lower than Desktop PCs because of the lower Frontside bus clock and the slower hard disks.

T7200: Mid-range (at the time of annoucement) dual core processor based on the Merom core. » Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
