The Toshiba Tecra A2 is a business notebook or laptop, it is aimed at people that do not want shinhy consumer stuff but one that you can use as a representative for a company.
The Tecra a2 is just that, it features a 15 inch screen and is deigned for Windows Xp or higher. the performance is not super fast but it does deliver and run the most commonly used office programs and internet applications.
battery life is fair about 2 hrs on full power (engery saving disabled high performance) if you are in a not too bright surrounding and you want to squeeze more battery life you can set the tecra a2 to lower cpu setting that enables longer battery life.
the display is good readable and bright and colourfull on the high setting
it is ideal for films and photo's or just a spreadsheet or so.
after 3 years my old 40gb harddrive failed and i installed a 80gb harddrive my self it was very easy to do so.
it does not weigh much without the adapter , and the sound is fair too (ok you miss the bass part but at least the level is more than enough to disturb people .
so if you do not care that it is not the latest bling bling laptop and you want one that lasts long i can reommend this one to anyone
