Overview

Toshiba Tecra 9100

Editors rating
Rating: 6.6
Verdict

Toshiba's latest Tecra is as nice to look at and use as its predecessor, but we were a little disappointed with this 1.6GHz Mobile Pentium 4 system's performance, and battery life was less than expected. Hopefully production machines (which will have a slightly faster CPU and more RAM) will be quicker.

Typical price

£ 2199
