The Satellite A305-S6858 features a special edition of Toshiba's "Fusion" finish, with exaggerated, almost cartoonish gray curves on a silver background and a modest Toshiba logo in the lower-right corner of the lid. The curves continue inside the case, slashing across the wrist rest and even across the touch pad, though the keyboard is a shiny solid black. The finish is almost mirrorlike, and even light handling will leave major fingerprints all over it.




Toshiba Qosmio X305-Q701



The Toshiba Qosmio X305-Q701 marks a new look for the Qosmio brand. Gone are the subdued blacks and silvers of years past; in their place come stylized red flames and glowing red LEDs. Also out the window are the sky-high prices of previous-generation Qosmios; the X305-Q701 costs just $1,399. Fortunately, some things haven't changed: thanks to its four Harman Kardon speakers and built-in subwoofer, the Qosmio X305-Q701 still produces some of the best sound we've heard on a laptop. And its case still comes stocked with the latest generation of components from Intel and Nvidia.
