[brandondoestalk]

yes, home premium

[kode103]

can you tell us how well is it for video playback? the quality, because im choosing between a Toshiba NB205 or a HP mini 311, only thing separating besides battery life is the graphics card

[brandondoestalk]

video playback is fine. it will tear from time to time playing 720p, but nothing bothersome.

[gobbotube]

yeah, hey I was just wondering about running Photoshop CS4.. is it able to run at an acceptable rate?

thanks

[brandondoestalk]

I'm not sure. I have my Macbook pro for that kind of thing. But I would imagine this thing could run it at an acceptable rate (basic editing, etc.) but at 10" the screen isn't really big enough to get a good workflow going. Hope this helps.

[brandondoestalk]

Well, I get netbooks in brown. Obviously, brown's not your style, but I guess that's why Toshiba also

offers this comp in pink...

the best thing about this note book is the silent fan, battery and attrativeness/built quality.

I wonder what would be better, or more recomended, Toshiba, or Acer?

[3volcoms]

[ichadification]

hey, could you show the webcam being used, and how to access it???

[jmberros]

brandondoestalk:

i'm considering buying this one. the keyboard is a crucial feature for me, because I hate the flat ones in the other models. besides having to get used to it, does the Toshiba kb feel better at all, with the keys being phisically separated and kinda lifted?

thx for answering :)
