toshiba Portege 4000 notebook battery review

Not everyone needs high performance, a big screen, thousands of megahertz of a processor and dozens of gigabytes on a hard drive. There are plenty of cases when a small size and light weight coupled with a good bundle of functions are of the most importance. Today we are testing the Portege 4000 notebook battery which takes the top in the Toshiba's line of portable PCs. In our work we often use various portable equipment, and in this respect positioning of this model is close to us.
A modern online pressman working on various exhibitions or forums can't use just pocket PCs or alike when he needs to deliver materials to the editors promptly. Nothing, even the most advanced PDAs, can't process digital photos in high resolution taken with a professional reflex digital camera. Their functions of text processing are primitive and screen resolution is too low. On the other hand, a 3-spindle monster on the Pentium 4 with half a gigabyte of memory, toshiba-portege-a100-battery
a 15" matrix and weighing 3 kg is burdensome. Just put yourselves in shoes of a guy flying around a display with a heap of photo and video cameras and making reports.
But don't think that a pressman is ready to sacrifice capabilities of a baby. We won't discuss economic, ethic problems and cost of software. It's well known that it's excellent to edit photos in PhotoShop, compress for WEB in ImageReady, draw tables in Excel and read texts in Word, while e-mail should be received in Outlook which also includes a planner and a calendar, allows making notes and supports synchronization with PDAs.
We got the toshiba-portege-4010-battery in a compact box, though without a handle. Inside the box the model is well protected from any damage during transportation. Apart from the notebook it contains a separate small cardboard package with documentation, software, a bracket to replace a built-in DVD-ROM drive and necessary cables.
