Toshiba’s Satellite X205
The Satellite X205 belongs to the new line of SLI gaming notebooks (Toshiba Powered). Seems to be that this year Toshiba really is trying to make sure their buyers can lay their dirty little hands in some powerful gaming piece of hardware.
While the X205-SLi5 and X205-SLi6 models are not packing the most powerful mobile chips available, they do include an ass-kicking nVidia GeForce 8600M GT combo that will be the envy of many desktops in the loop, even with while facing the more demanding new generations of 3d Mine Sweepers.
It also seems to be that they won’t be a hard pain in the pocket because they will land with price tags between $1950 and $2450, which is not enough to snap the next line of more powerful processors in any known brand anyway.
