Toshiba Satellite A215-S4697 Overview

The Satellite A215-S4697 Notebook Computer from Toshiba is the perfect blend of mobility, style, and performance. This laptop PC is perfect for the digital road warrior. It will help you get the most out of your digital devices, whether you are shooting photos with your digital camera, making a home movie with your digital video camera, or playing music on your MP3 player.

The Satellite comes with software such as Microsoft Works 8.5 for productivity applications. The computer features a FireWire-400/iLink port to capture digital video from a camcorder and a 5-in-1 memory card reader to download photos from digital camera memory cards. You can easily connect peripheral devices such as digital cameras and MP3 players to the computer via the four installed USB 2.0 ports.

The system is powered by a 1.6 GHz AMD Turion 64 X2 Dual-Core TL-52 CPU and boasts 1 GB of RAM, 160 GB 5400 rpm SATA hard drive capacity, a SuperMulti DVD burner, 802.11b/g Wi-Fi, and a 15.4" widescreen display powered by ATI Radeon X1200 graphics. Windows Vista Home Premium is the platform that ties all this hardware and software together, providing a great portable computer for the digital savvy family. And it's backed by the Toshiba name.

AMD Turion 64 X2 Dual-Core TL-52 CPU
The AMD Turion 64 X2 Dual-Core TL-52 CPU is based on an architecture designed specifically for mobile computing; this processor delivers a balanced level of mobile processor technology and exceptional value in this lighter, easier-to-carry notebook PC. The dual-core technology delivers two execution cores in one CPU, giving you better performance than a comparable single-core processor.
Windows Vista Home Premium
The computer comes preloaded with the Windows Vista Home Premium operating system from Microsoft. Vista includes the slick Aero user interface, complete with the Windows Sidebar, gadget support, Flip3D navigation, and more. The Home Premium edition of Vista includes the popular Windows Media Center application. This lets your computer more easily connect to your home theater and wirelessly stream media to the Xbox 360 or another compatible media extender device.
Widescreen Display
The laptop has a 15.4" high-definition widescreen display that brings your movies and photos to life with amazing color and clarity. The widescreen aspect ratio increases the width of the notebook's display while giving the computer the form factor of a smaller computer, so it takes up less space on your desk or in your briefcase.
ATI Radeon X1200 Graphics
The ATI Radeon X1200 graphics offer realistic 3-D and 2-D graphics, delivering real-life environment and character effects. Movies and digital images are sharply rendered so you can supercharge your business presentations with crisp images and animation.
Digital Video Capture
The integrated FireWire port allows you to directly capture video from a digital camcorder to your PC. Windows Vista includes software for home video editing and DVD creation.
Digital Photo Import
The built-in 5-in-1 card reader lets you easily download your pictures from all major digital camera memory types without the hassle of connecting cables between your camera and computer.
Virus Protection
The included McAfee Internet Security Suite software comes with a 30-day trial subscription to help you protect your computer from malicious software such as viruses and trojans. This helps to protect your computer when you are browsing the web or reading e-mail.
