Good battery life ; Solid build ; Lightweight and portable

Poor screen ; Low on power

In terms of performance, this laptop leaves a lot to be desired. But less demanding users may be tempted by its portability

Well built ; High performance thanks to XP ; Decent security

Very little by way of style

A corporate laptop with strong credentials

Toshiba's Tecra has some appealing features, but is outclassed by the competition. The Tecra has a good screen and impressive battery life, but the poor touch pad and small hard disk count against it. Samsung's R70 is a better buy.

The Tecra A9-51S is a very stylish notebook with a decent battery life. However, when it comes to performance, it can't compete with the Eclipse and PC Nextday notebooks.

Solidly-built unit, pre-installed software makes connectivity simple, good value

Design is somewhat drab, screen has narrow viewing angles; lacks a webcam and Bluetooth

A well-priced and solid notebook that should suit many business users' needs, despite its lack of high-end features.

Unfussy businesslike design, large and attractive widescreen display, solid performer in most areas

Not geared towards portability, limited graphical capabilities

While it might not quite resurrect a dying breed, the A9 (PTS52A-00V00F) proves that big old-fashioned business notebooks still have a worthy place in the ultra-mobile world. Worth investing in.

Excellent "Green" rating. Serial port. Low power consumption.

Insufficient RAM by Vista standards. Ho-hum design. Keyboard could be sturdier. Pointing stick has the feel of sandpaper.

Comfortable keyboard and pointing stick ; Very cool and quiet cooling system ; 3-year warranty standard
