Toshiba Satellite A105-S4004 NotebookWant another Toshiba notebook at one of the lowest prices possible? The Toshiba Satellite A105-S4004 might be a good bet for you. With a 1.66GHz Intel Core Duo (T2300) processor and 1GB of RAM, this is an entry-level notebook for 2006.

It's great to note that there's nothing "entry-level" about the screen: all of 15.4" WXGA goodness with TruBrite as well. A 5400-rpm 100GB drive takes care of your storage needs, while a DVD-SuperMulti drive (+/-R dual layer type) provides enough archival options.

Express Media Player bundled with the laptop starts playing DVDs and CDs at the push of a button. The base model weighs in at 6 pounds, which is nice. Essential software that come with the Toshiba A105-S4004 include Microsoft OneNote (my personal favorite), WinDVD Creator and MS Works.

With a price tag of just US $1,249.99, the Toshiba A105-S4004 is set to go places. http://www.toshibadirect.com/
