Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A tale of two notebooks
You may have noticed Toshiba is selling two very different notebooks for the same price: the 1955-S803 and the 5205-S703. So which is better? The 1955 cost about the same as the 5205, has the same memory, same HDD, a bigger screen and faster CPU, so it must be the best choice right? Well maybe not.

The 1955 has a nice big 16" LCD, but the *quality* of that screen is much lower than the 15" screen on the 5205. Also the 1955 is using a P4 desktop CPU, whereas the 5205 uses a P4 mobile CPU. The desktop CPU runs hotter and drains the battery faster.

So which is better? Well it depends on what you want. The 1955 is a great choice if you are going to plug into a wall socket and don't plan to use your notebook on your lap (the bottom gets hot). It more like a desktop computer you can move around easily. The 5205 is a better choice if you need more battery life or want a very high quality screen to reduce eyestrain, do CAD work, or to play the latest 3D games.

Personally I prefer the 5205 for the longer battery life and high quality screen. The build quality is also a little better (both are good).

CPU:
1955 2.5 GHz P4 Desktop CPU
5205 2.0 GHz P4 Mobile CPU (cooler, battery last longer)

Screen:
1955 16" LCD 1280x1024 pixels (that pixel count is too low for a 16")
5205 15" LCD 1660x1200 pixels (provides a much sharper image)

Graphics chipset:
1955 NVIDIA GeForce4 440 Go (good enough for some 3d games, light CAD)
5205 NVIDIA GeForce4 460 Go (about 30% faster than the 440)

Weight:
1955 9.5lbs (getting a little heavy)
5205 7.5lbs (not bad)

Both offerings have serious competition ... so look around.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A REAL desktop replacement
Wow. Everything you could want and more. While it's not svelte (how could it be with a 16 inch screen), it has absolutely everything you could need in a laptop, big power, huge disk, gorgeous screen, CDRW/DVD, lots of memory, big time video card, built in Wi-Fi (leaving the 2 PC card slots open), and even decent audio (I was pleasantly surprised at the sound quality, considering it's a laptop). The fit and finish are top notch (typical Toshiba), and everything about this unit feels very high line. The wireless detachable keyboard and mouse are just icing on the cake. If you really want to chuck your desktop (or give it to the kids), this one is the move. (And no, I don't work for Toshiba)
