The Bottom Line	The 17-inch Toshiba Satellite P205-S6237 laptop looks good but is hobbled by its budget processor. You can get more for your money elsewhere.	Good design and some really nice-sounding speakers round out the Toshiba Satellite A505-S6980, a very affordable mainstream laptop with excellent battery life for its size.		The 17-inch Toshiba Satellite P205-S6287 desktop replacement laptop backs up its good looks with a competitive mix of components for the price. We just wish its battery life were longer.
