Toshiba Qosmio G20 Laptop Review
T-Break published a review on the Toshiba Qosmio G20 Laptop. The notebook is huge and heavy, however, its supposed to be a Desktop Replacement and not one that you carry around with you. Considering that, the size and the 4.3Kg weight can be justified. Looks-wise, we like the slick black coating, however, its extremely prone to finger prints. The front side of the laptop has a slot-in Optical drive that writes dual layer and ± DVDs.
The G20 is a multi-media powerhouse based on Microsoft's Windows XP Media Center edition and is designed to be a desktop replacement. Toshiba bundles the notebook with a Media Center Remote control as well as IR blasters that basically send IR signals to your cable/satellite box for changing channels through Media Center. Also included are A/V cables, installation/recovery media and the power adaptor which is of average size.
The right side of the notebook has two USB ports, audio ports as well as the modem jack while the left side features expansion card slots, a Firewire port and a card reader. Finally, the back has display inputs and outputs such as DSUB, S-Video and component as well as the power adapter connector and the Network socket.
