A Notebook for all situations in life is a fine thing. With the Satellite pro U200 would nearly successfully be Toshiba this - would not be there a small problem.

With somewhat less than 1.9 kg the Toshiba Satellite U200 is a genuine fly weight for the mobile employment. Owing to its small dimensions of only 29.9 x 22.5 x 3.4 cm (B x T x H) is the Subnotebook the ideal companion in all situations in life. Its responding classical Design in black and silver make it the attractive eyecatcher.

After switching on on we could directly about stung the sharp picture the TruBrite WXGA TFT screen enjoy. The 1280 x of 800 pixels on the 12.1 tariff diagonal fulfill their job outstanding and ensure for eye-careful working even after longer time. That changes after the Herunterregeln of the brightness pleasing little. The only restriction of the positive picture is the angle between monitor and keyboard, which with only 135 degrees one tick too small precipitates. An ergonomic working position can be found only difficult for humans beyond the 1.80 meters in such a way.

The necessary diagram data are supplied by a Intel-945GM-Express-Grafikchip. It orders over up to 128 MByte RAM, which it abzwackt from scarce measured 512 MByte large DDR2 main memory. For the intended employment as mobile Office computers is however more than sufficient this configuration. Particularly with T2400 core duo processor of Intel (1.83 GHz clock frequency) a quick CCU at the start is.

Regarding the mass storages the U200 from the best side shows up. The 80 GByte large non removable disk comes from own house and is whisper quiet. Toshiba underlines its authority within the mobile range also here. Because thanks of the protective mechanism are stopped the write/ read head of the non removable disk during the smallest vibration. Overrun or the damage of the hardware is to be avoided thereby. With the CD/DVD Multibrenner it concerns the Matshita UJ-842S, which is clearly audible when working. The provided fuel software developed Toshiba themselves. In user friendly kind the Disc Creator music and data CDs or DVDs as well as 1:1 copies provides. For providing films the WinDVD Creator 2 is meant. To describe the double Layer drive assembly media in all usual formats can.

The input devices please. The notice of the keys sounds somewhat klapprig, the quality of workmanship is correct however. Despite the small size of the laptop no restrictions must be accepted regarding the keyboard. Somewhat differently looks with the Touchpad. It reacted protruding, is however too small and is too far on the left half of the computer. Thus turned out left and right hand when working fast together. An additional external mouse is recommended therefore much.

Good work carried Toshiba out also with the equipment with auxiliary keys. Directly over the keyboard altogether six keys are installed. With them the Webbrowser as well as the Mediaplayer can be started and regulated the music rendition. At first sight somewhat outdated the concept of the audio gain control works by means of plastikrad. In the daily use it proves however as practice suited.
