Overview

Toshiba Satellite 5200-701

Editors rating
Rating: 7.7
Verdict

The Satellite 5200 has the power to be a realistic alternative to a home desktop PC, and for the most part the features it boasts -- good 3D graphics, decent audio quality, Bluetooth -- are the ones people are likely to want.

Typical price

£ 1701

Featured Talkback

The truth about low cost computing is that nobody really cares whether the machine is running Windows or Linux as long as its cheap, its easy to use and it works.
