Measuring 14.1 by 10.6 by 1.4 inches and weighing just 6.2
pounds, the Satellite M35-S320 Notebook is rather wide but
comfortably slim and quite portable. Toshiba has based the
system on Intel's Centrino technology, whereby three
interconnected elements -- an Intel Pentium M CPU (with 1 full
MB of Level 2 cache), an Intel 855 chipset, and a cord-free
network connection -- work together to keep your notebook
lightweight, wirelessly connected, power efficient, and faster
than its rated CPU speed might indicate. Driven by a quick 1.5
GHz Pentium M CPU, 1024 MB RAM memory (expandable to 2 full GB)
and a nVidia GeForce FX graphics controller, the unit is ready
for most 2-D and 3-D tasks.
The system's large 40 GB hard disk
offers enough storage space for all your regular data and a
substantial library of multimedia files too, and its
CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive allows you to listen to and burn audio CDs,
archive data to durable digital media, and play DVD movies.
Other welcome amenities include a generous 15.4-inch display in
DVD-friendly widescreen 16:9 format, an 85-key keyboard with 12
hotkeys, a TouchPad pointing device with scroll function, and
integrated harman/kardon stereo speakers.
With the Satellite M35-S320 Notebook, communication options
are virtually limitless. In environments with wired connections,
you can select from a 56K dial-up modem or high-speed 10/100
Ethernet LAN. When hardwiring is a problem, you can stay in
touch via integrated IntelPRO/Wireless 2100 LAN. Other key
components include three fast USB 2.0 ports for fast interaction
with external plug and play devices such as scanners and digital
cameras, an S-Video TV--out, and an infrared port for wireless
communication with PDAs and the like.
