Bei notebookjournal.de gab es in letzter Zeit immer wieder Fragen zum Toshiba Satellite U400. Zwei Besitzer des U400 haben gleich alle Fragen beantwortet und auch noch ein paar “Profi-Tipps” gegeben:

“Die Tastatur ausbauen (geht sehr leicht) und ein wenig nach innen wölben sodass eine leichte Wölbung entsteht… Damit sitzt die Tastatur viel besser -regelrecht bombenfest- auf und lässt sich nicht einbiegen.” eman

Eman ist auch sehr zufrieden mit seinem U400 und macht schon fast Werbung für den kleinen 13,3 Zoller. Er konnte auch ’sraven ‘überzeugen. Der hatte zwar erstmal richtig Pech mit den Modellen, die er bekommen hatte, jetzt scheint aber alles zu laufen.

Wenn ihr Fragen habt, dann fragt doch einfach mal im Forum nach.
Hier noch die Antworten, zu zwei beliebten Fragen:

Das U400 hat in den neusten Modellen Bluetooth!
Wenn man die Tastaturbeleuchtung abstellt, hält der Akku locker 3 Stunden!

Das Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-14M gibt es mittlerweile online schon ab 799€. Vielleicht ist es für den einen oder anderen ja genau die Alternative zwischen Netbook und normalen Notebook.

Ich würde mich freuen noch mehr persönliche Meinungen zu hören!

Proxy hat sich ans linux-forum.de gewandt, weil er sein L300-180 mit Linux betreiben will, aber da fehlen ihm noch die passenden Treiber für seine “Wlankarte (eingebaut) von Realtek”, deswegen musste er die ganze Aktion erstmal wieder ablasen. 

Wenn ihr eine Lösung für sein Problem kennt, dann schreibt doch bitte ins Forum.

Was mich interessiert ist, ob jemand von euch vielleicht schon Erfahrung mit Toshiba und Linux gemacht hat. Und wenn ja natürlich, wie es funktioniert hat. Also ich freu mich auf ein paar Kommentare.

Now there’s an interesting conundrum for a Tuesday afternoon - you have your shiny Toshiba laptop, fully updated and ready to bring you waves of electronic pleasure… But how on earth do you get it to work/school/around and about unsullied by the everyday hustle and bustle of modern life? A question that has recently troubled horst696 in the Toshiba forums.

However, help has been forthcoming, with Dennis Farina suggesting “such brands like Targus or Deuter, who do really nice backpacks which are designed for full portability and comfort.” ABJB disagreed however, and found that a standard bag without a laptop compartment offered him the best option – “Out of everything I bought the best solution for my laptop was a standard Samsonite rucksack”.

Final word however went to Jeffrey, who after stating that Google “is your friend” (surely you mean talkToshiba sir?), came up with what seemed the perfect answer… “How about a TXL617 Targus 17” XL laptop backpack? The backpack provides enough space for notebooks with up to 17” screens.” – Superb!

And so if you do want anything else, pop over to the forums and ask away!

Five days ago R_L_S of The Student Room pleaded for assistance from his fellow board members over a choice of new Toshiba laptop. Unfortunately, the response hasn’t been too great and I was hoping readers of this site could be more helpful!

After three years of good service, R_L_S’s current laptop is feeling a bit worse for wear and it looks as though an upgrade is needed. As R_L_S says: “I’m off to Uni so will basically just be using it for the usual MS office malarkey, internet, the odd game and to play music…and DVDs.”

The temptation is the Satellite L300-11C which is being sold at R_L_S’s local shop for a bargain price of £350. As the stricken student shouts their SOS is there anyone reading this who can offer any advice?

Der Nachfolger des Spielernotebooks X200 wird das Toshiba Qosmio X300 bzw X305 werden, das schein fest zustehen.
Und er wird rot und feurig werden, das steht auch fest.
Was sonst noch fest steht, haben die User im Notebookcheck Forum schön zusammengetragen.

Schaut einfach mal hier vorbei.

Eine weitere gut (englischsprachige) Seite auf die verlinkt wurde ist gizmodo.com, dort ist zu lesen, dass der Preis zwischen je nach Ausstattung zwischen 1550 und 3500 US-Dollar liegen wird.

Mehr Informationen gibt es natürlich auch auf der X305 Toshiba Website, wo sich hoffentlich bald noch weitere Modell zum X305-Q701 dazugesellen werden.

Like many parents this Christmas Kevan Kelly is on a mission to find a laptop to keep a teenager happy and to help find the right one he has turned to The Computer Forums for advice.

For the moment the laptop will only be used for downloading, MSN and photoshop, though a webcam would be useful. Kevan Kelly is also after a laptop with a decent memory as he hopes that it will be used for study in the future! Dave Hybrid has listed the things that you can get in a laptop for the £500 budget Kevan Kelly has, though there are still no recommendations.

Keeping to under £500 and boasting specifications such as Intel Core 2 Duo Processor, WiFi and an intergrated webcam, the Toshiba U300 sounds like a perfect choice for Kevan Kelly. However there is nothing like personal recommendations to help, so if you have had experience of the U300 or know a laptop you think would suit Kevan Kelly’s needs, click on this link and view the forum.

Un super forum !!!

Keeping firmly in his daughter’s good books as far as laptops are concerned is Alexpl who, knowing that buying the right laptop can be a stressful as well as an important investment, has asked for some advice from Notebook Forums.

Alexpl may not know which laptop to by but he’s pretty sure that his daughter needs a fairly lightweight laptop complete with Vista and 2GB of RAM. It also needs to last for 4 years and use Santa Rosa! Screen quality is also important, as his daughter is short sighted and won’t enjoy using a grainy or flickery screen. With the school term looming advice is needed ASAP.

The Satellite U305 could almost be custom-built for Alexpl! In a recent CNET review, particular praise is reserved for it excellent 13″ screen which uses TruBrite technology to ensure that it’s sharp and bright without being distracting! The review goes on to reveal how the U305 fared in its numerous system tests and describes it as perfect for home users who still want a feature packed notebook.

Boop 2 has the asked the experts at Computer Forum for help in finding a new ‘high-quality, multipurpose machine’ to replace his three year old Dell. He admits that, when it comes to computers, he has a lot to learn so an easy-to-use work and play laptop is needed.

As if in answer to Boop 2, John has written a review of the Toshiba P100 on Tech Blog describing it as a ‘general purpose, high-end workstation’. He thinks it’s a powerful machine that would have no trouble handling heavy apps. He also shares his feelings on its usability, saying it has a ‘familiar’ feeling that makes it easy to use. With key specs such as 2GB RAM, 200GB HDD and WiFi, the P100 is certainly an impressive multipurpose machine.
