Pros: The thinnest, lightest laptop money can buy Cons: Touchpad, size (other than thickness)
I really wanted to like the Portege 2000. I've been using Toshiba Porteges since the 650CT I bought in 1996, and have progressed through smaller and lighter units until arriving at my current 3480CT, which is 3.4lbs and .8 inches thick. When the...
Pros: This is the ferrari of laptops, second glances from everyone, expensive. Cons: Not very fast, low volume speakers, no internal cd-rom, expensive.
Update June 2003
When I got my vaio stolen, I bought this laptop, it got stolen again (after I wrote this review) and guess which laptop I bought? Portege 2000 of course..
The Wifi card works under Redhat 9.0 without having to...
Pros: Extremely light and small Cons: mid range performance, lousy battery life
If compactness was the number one desirable quality of a laptop computer, then the Toshiba's Portégé 2000 would win hands down. At just 0.73 inches in height, this is the thinnest available full size laptop on the market today.
Pros: Ultra thin and light, integrated 802.11b Wireless Ethernet, surprisingly good keyboard Cons: Limited battery life with standard battery
Weak speaker
No Firewire
Only one PC Card slot
This notebook is amply reviewed elsewhere and I won't repeat what others have said. Just a few points that were missed elsewhere:
- the built-in speaker has very low volume. if you want to listen to music or the like, headphones are mandatory,...
Pros: Lightweight, stylish, well-connected
Cons: Noticible knock/clack of hard drive
My main concern in this review concerns a serious defect that I've encountered in the Portege 2000 that I must disclose to everyone. The flaw is sufficiently bad that it made me return the Portege 2000, even though I love everything else about the...
Pros: attention getting good looks
thin profile
light weight if U leave accessories at home Cons: slow processor
poor dvd performance
poor audio quality
We bought the light weight and without alot of delving into details and got burned. The notebook is light weight if you opt to leave the peripherals at home, to achieve the light weight the floppy drive and cd and/or DVD drive are connected externally....
Pros: Small thin profile, great external design, awesome keyboard and screen. Cons: No firewire or USB 2.0, bad build quality. Poor DVD playback performance. Poor performance overall.
Compared to my old laptop, an aging Portege 3020ct, the build quality seems to have declined. Within one day, I had broken a plastic piece off the side of the laptop near the locking port. Not much of a build quality issue, more of a design issue, who ...
Pros: Lightweight yet powerful, integrated wireless lan, excellent battery life Cons: CD-Rom is external and at an additional charge, Notebook is pricey
I've had many notebook computers, but this one is the best yet. It is lighweight (about 2.6 pounds), yet it is as powerful as a desktop. It is handsomely designed and very cool looking.
The connectivity options is one of the best features of...
Pros: Small and light
Two Batteries
Internal Wi-Fi Cons: Weak performence
Unupgradable
The first thing that strikes you about this laptop is its weight and its size. Its incredily tiny and light! Its very thin and looks great as well. The keyboard and mouse are also very convinient. The design is very ergonomic and you can see the status...
