"Wonderful and very Reliable"
Pros: Great speed,
very reliable,
powerful workstation Quadro dedicated video card,
Very universal and works with old equipmentCons: main cons are about the actual hardware itself, the screen is extremely thin, something that I personally am generally paranoid about, could be very easy to damage.
Summary: I personally love this laptop, the power it contains to do what you want out of a laptop is no thing to scoff at when it comes to this beast.
the laptop itself contains a DVD burner, so its very easy to go somewhere and burn the things you need for a quick data backup
Up to date with the security methods it has a fingerprint reader to log you into the computer (using this as an alternate method vs. password input) and the Toshiba software contains a program that protects your data using fingerprint credentials.
Its a business grade machine, having the ability to do presentations, graphical work, or even working in photoshop! You will not be let down be the power of the M5, its Nvidia Quadro NVS110 has the power of a slightly beefed up 7300, basically a 7400, but its optimized to work with graphical applications such as 3ds Max, Maya, After Effects, ECT... this is one of the main features that are important to me, having the ability to work on a laptop and not be hampered by an on-board video processing unit hogging up system resources.
The Core 2 Duo T2500 is perfect for modern day applications, able to process most everything in a very timely manner.
The ability to work with the 'old days' hardware is very nice, working with the printers that run on the serial bus.
bottom line, this is a very wonderful laptop if you don't mind the thin screen.
