Combining great portability, generous battery life and modern style in a slim, eco-smart package, the Toshiba Satellite M505-S4947 is sized to travel while providing powerful computing resources for all of your needs--work, learning and play. The 14-inch LED-backlit display offers TruBrite technology for optimal image clarity and a 1366 x 768 resolution for extra desktop working space and a widescreen aspect ratio for watching letterboxed DVDs--as well as native 720p high-definition resolution for watching downloaded HD movies and TV shows. This M505 laptop comes with a 12-cell rechargeable battery, which provides up to 8 hours of battery life on the go (twice that of a normal 6-cell battery)--enabling you to go farther and do more on a single charge.

This Toshiba Satellite is powered the 2.0 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo P7350, which includes a lightning quick 1066 MHz front-side bus and 3 MB of L2 cache for an optimized, multithreaded architecture providing improved multimedia and multitasking performance. It also includes Intel's 5100AGN wireless LAN, which will connect to draft 802.11n routers and offers compatibility with 802.11a/b/g networks as well. Other features include a 400 GB hard drive, 4 GB of installed RAM (upgradeable to 8 GB), 5-in-1 memory card reader, eSATA/USB combo port, HDMI audio/video output, and 64-bit version of the Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium operating system.

This Toshiba notebook is Energy Star 5.0 certified and it is RoHS-compliant, effectively reducing the environmental impact by restricting the use of lead, mercury and certain other hazardous substances.

Networking, Connectivity & Expansion
With its integrated Draft-N Wi-Fi networking capabilities, this laptop provides up to five times the performance and twice the wireless range using 802.11n-compatible routers as you would with 802.11g networks. It's also backward compatible with 802.11b/g networks (commonly found at Wi-Fi hotspots and in older home routers) as well as 802.11a networks (which has a higher throughput, but more limited range--great for closed office environments). This notebook also providesGigabit (10/100/1000) Ethernet networking.

It also includes a next-generation ExpressCard card slot (replacing the PCMCIA slot), which lets you take advantage of thinner, faster, and lighter expansion cards for even more advanced wireless, networking, storage, and security features. It comes with the following external connectors:

• 3 USB 2.0 ports for connecting a wide range of peripherals--from digital cameras to MP3 players
  • Includes 1 eSATA/USB combo port with USB Sleep and Charge
• 1 HDMI output for connecting to a compatible HDTV or home theater receiver for uncompressed digital audio and video via a single cable
