Toshiba Satellite Pro A10 review

Wednesday 17 September 2003, 2:41 PM

All new laptops need DVD combo for backup


All laptops, especially because they are delicate and thievable, need the ability to back up frequently onto CD at least, preferably DVD data. Once a week is absolute maximum interval for anyone but the utterly stupid -- using the laptop for work of any kind, usually the reason to have one.

To produce one that needs a separate backup device now DVD writers are available is just barmy. 0/10 for imagination.

Verdict

Given its sub-£500 (ex. VAT) price, the Satellite Pro A10 is pretty impressive. Choose it if you need a budget notebook for everyday tasks -- but be aware of its limitations.

Review Although it's missing some features (chiefly HSDPA and GPS), Nokia's E63 is a well-thought-out, ergonomic and affordable smartphone.
