Stilton Company - In January, Toshiba came out with a new line of laptops, the A350 Series
The 350 series is the natural successor to the 305 series and the main difference is an upgrade from a 15.4 inches to 16 inches. The new line performs just as well, if not better than its successor.
Similarities between all of the models of course starts with the 16 inch LCD (1366×768) with true 16:9 aspect ration and 720p HD resolution. Each 350 series Toshiba laptop also comes preinstalled with Windows Vista.
The laptops themselves are gorgeous from the shiny outer casing to the semi rounded under base with two large chromed mouse buttons. The Harmon Kardon speakers are nicely positioned, the touch areas well illuminated the huge 16 inch monitor and the extremely shiny keyboard make this a very attractive line of laptops. Toshiba calls the finish a “Fusion Finish”.
If you suffer from OCD, be warned that the glossy keyboards are sometimes susceptible to fingerprint smudges but most people can overlook this. There’s plenty of room for your palms to rest while you type on a very comfortable surface.
Let’s take a look at each model and see what they offer as well as brief reviews of each. We will start at the lower end of the spectrum with the S6920 models and work our way up to the higher end S6940 models.
All models feature an integrated webcam. The integrated webcam does more than just video chats. It includes Toshiba Face Recognition capabilities for the ultimate hands-free, hassle-free way to log onto your laptop. Just show your face to the webcam, no keeping track of hard-to-remember passwords and no unnecessary typing. And if you’re using one laptop for several users–say for the whole family or for a small business, Toshiba Face Recognition lets you switch profiles with one simple look.
The laptops also feature a quad-mode Intel Wireless 5100 AGN Wi-Fi Chip. This is based on the 802.11n WiFi specification, but it offers up to 5 times the performance and twice the range of standard 802.11g wireless networking. It’s also backwards compatible with old 802.11a networks you could find in an office setting as well.
The preinstalled software library on these laptops include Microsoft Works 9.0, Google Toolbar, Ulead DVD MovieFactory 5, Norton 360 All-in-One Security (30-day trial), and Microsoft Office 2007 Home and Student Edition (60-day trial).
These laptops weigh in at 6.5 pounds each.

Toshiba Satellite A355-S6925 16.0-Inch Laptop is the next step up in the line, similar to the 6924, but this one has a 2.0GHZ intel core duo processor T6400.
Toshiba Satellite A355-S6931 16.0-Inch Laptop is one more step up the processor ladder with a 2.13 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo P7450 processor (Centrino 2). While moving ahead in the line, the main key upgrade component is processing power.
