Toshiba Tecra A11 1HP Reviews
The Toshiba Tecra A11 is a cheap business notebook, which does what it is exactly intended for. The display has a matt covering and offers good brightness levels. The design is conservative and there are more than enough ports. Plus the keyboard is sturdy and well-designed. The system noise emission and the surface temperatures are well under control. The performance of the new Intel Core i5 processor is good for programs, but the graphics performance is restricted due to the integrated GMA HD.

In the Tecra A11, Toshiba has created a very capable and affordable system for small business users. For $879, you get a fairly powerful processor, useful productivity features (such as the ability to create a hotspot on the fly), and budget-minded security utilities like Secure Digital Token. And if all that fails, Toshiba's three-year warranty is very reassuring. Still, before taking the plunge, you can stretch out your funding even more with the HP ProBook 4520s, which features a 2.13-GHz Intel Core i3-350M processor, a larger (and faster) 7,200-rpm, 320GB hard drive, and a lighter design, all for an affordable $719. But you would be wrong to dismiss the Tecra A11 out of hand. It may not have a lot of flair, but it sure gets the job done.

It's all pretty comprehensive, giving an overall impression of a solid, effective notebook. It won't turn heads, it's not the thinnest or lightest, the resolution is limited and the battery life is decent if unspectacular, but with plenty of raw horsepower it will let you get your job done with the minimum of fuss.
