Review: Toshiba Mini NB205-N313P

by on August 2nd, 2009

IMG_0553“It’s so cute!” Those were the first words out of my mouth when I opened the box containing the Toshiba Mini NB205-N313P. I was given one to test in “Posh Pink,” but it’s also available in Frost White, Royal Blue, and Sable Brown.
Like all netbooks, it’s small and lightweight. However, the Toshiba NB205 seems a bit larger than some other netbooks out in the market. This is partly because it comes with a six-cell battery, which I’ll talk about more later in this review. Regardless, it still only weighs a little less than three pounds.

The laptop cover has a matte finish with diagonal etches. It sports a large Toshiba logo in the middle in a shiny silver. Open up the laptop and you see a glossy 10-inch LED screen with a full keyboard. A full keyboard on a 10-inch netbook is rare so it’s definitely a plus for the NB205. For a notebook, the keyboard was pretty easy to use. You have to get used to it at first, though. I punched in a few wrong letters the first few times I used the netbook.

So basically in the few months I’ve lived here I have been chased through Safeway (Supermarket) by a lady who had turrets syndrome (she is well known in the area), random homeless folks either singing or asking for change, and then witnessed a lady stealing a wheel of cheese in the slowest get away known to man (who sticks a cheese wheel under their shirt and then limps out thinking you can get away with it?). Needless to say now I know to walk with a purpose, ear buds on, and dark sunglasses. Except for this one day…
