Toshiba Satellite M100 Review by NotebookReview
Toshiba Satellite M100 notebook computer can be powered by Intel Core Duo processor for Intel Centrino Duo Mobile Technology and Intel Core Solo Processors for Intel Centrino Mobile Technology. The laptop has 14″ Diagonal Widescreen XGA display* with optional TruBrite technology and CD-RW/DVD-ROM or a DVD SuperMulti drive which supports up to 11 formats.
NotebookReview concluded that “I’m extremely impressed with my Toshiba Satellite M100. It’s a beautifully designed, powerful machine and it is very, very light. It is a really good choice for those who intend to use it as I do: for school and entertainment and medium to good quality gaming. It stands up solidly to competitors, and in my opinion, is much prettier than most equivalent computers. Its price is amazing compared to other machines of its size and quality, and with dedicated graphics, it is a force to be reckoned with. The few problems I have with it are very minor and only because I had such high expectations. Overall, I’m extremely pleased with my purchase and like my computer more every day.”

Unless this M100 is a totally different model than this one:

I’d take out the “dedicated graphics” from Pros and add it to Cons as “integrated graphics” instead. It’s common knowledge that the Intel 945GM Express is a real POS.
