The product specifications and configuration information are designed for a product
Series. Your particular model may not have all the features and specifications listed or
illustrated. For more detailed information about the features and specifications on
your particular model, please visit Toshiba’s Web site at pcsupport.toshiba.com.

CPU performance may vary. See Processor Legal
Footnote at www.info.toshiba.com. Intel® Dual Core Technology is a new technology
designed to deliver improved performance to the notebook PC. Performance or
compatibility may vary. For more information on Intel’s Core 2 Duo processors, visit:
http://www.Intel.com/core2duo/.
3
64-bit processors are designed to take advantage of
32 and 64 bit computing. 64-bit computing requires that the following hardware and
software requirements are met: 64-bit Operating System, 64-bit CPU, Chipset and
BIOS (Basic Input/Output System), 64-bit Device drivers, 64-bit applications. Certain
device drivers and/or applications may not be compatible with a 64-bit CPU and
therefore may not function properly. A 32-bit version of the operating system is
preinstalled on your computer unless explicitly stated that the operating system is 64-
bit. See “Detailed Specs” for more information.
4
May require purchase of additional
software, external hardware, or services. Transmission speeds may vary. See Wireless
Legal Footnote at www.info.toshiba.com.
5
The Intel® Wireless Wi-Fi® Link 4965AGN
(802.11a/g/n) adapter is based on a draft “n” release version of the IEEE 802.11n
specification, also known as “Draft N”, which may not be compatible with, or support
all features (e.g., security) of, certain Wi-Fi® equipment. Based on the theoretical
bandwidth maximum enabled by 2x3 Draft-N implementations with 2 spatial streams.
Actual wireless throughput and/or range will vary depending on your specific
operating system, hardware and software configurations. Compatible wireless access
point required. http://www.intel.com/network/connectivity/resources/doc_library/
tech_brief/316286.pdf.
6
Memory size may vary. See Memory Legal Footnote at www.
info.toshiba.com.
7
Hard drive capacity may vary. 1 Gigabyte (GB) means 109 =
1,000,000,000 bytes using powers of 10. See Hard Disk Drive Capacity Legal Footnote
at www.info.toshiba.com.
8
Copy protection technology may prevent or limit recording
or viewing of certain optical media (e.g., CD or DVD).
9
Because HD DVD is a new
format that makes use of new technologies, certain disc, digital connection and other
compatibility and/or performance issues are possible. Advanced interactive and
navigation features of the HD DVD Video format including, but not limited to, Picture in
Picture (PIP) and network streaming features are not supported by this product. HD
DVD Application Logo (HD DVD-ROM) represents the optical drive’s conformity with
the DVD Forum’s verification criteria for HD DVD physical format, and does not
represent compliance with the HD DVD Video specification defined by the DVD Forum.
Advanced Access Content System (AACS) keys are integrated into your computer for
copy protection purposes. Occasional renewal of the AACS key is required, and easily
done by connecting to the Internet. AACS key renewal will be provided at no charge to
purchasers. If the AACS key is not renewed, the HD DVD player software will stop
playing AACS-protected HD DVD content. However, it will continue to play other forms
of content, such as DVD discs or non-protected HD DVD content. For more information
on AACS key, visit www.aacsla.com/home. See Toshiba HD DVD model “Detailed
Specs” at www.computers.toshiba.com for important information on HD DVD playback
capabilities.
10
TV tuner will function only in the country where the computer was
purchased.
11
To receive digital cable TV channels, including premium programming,
you must subscribe to a supported digital cable TV package, install and register your
CableCARD and have internet connection. For more information about digital cable
services, contact your local cable TV provider. The digital cable TV tuner does not
support interactive services including, but not limited to, video-on-demand, pay-per-
view or interactive programming guides. The digital cable TV tuner also does not
support Satellite TV.
12
Small bright dots may appear on your screen display when you
turn on your PC. Your display contains an extremely large number of thin-film
transistors (TFT) and is manufactured using high-precision technology. Any small
bright dots that may appear on your display are an intrinsic characteristic of the TFT
manufacturing technology. Over a period of time, and depending on the usage of the
computer, the brightness of the screen will deteriorate. This is also an intrinsic
characteristic of the screen technology. When the computer is operated on battery
power, the screen with dim and you may not be able to increase the brightness of the
screen while on battery power.
13
‘1080P FULL HD’ in Toshiba PC indicates “To have
the LCD which has 1920×1080 or more pixels number, and to have the ability that the
moving image of progressive (progressive-scanning) display system of 1920×1080 can
be displayed with dot by dot.
14
GPU performance may vary. See Graphics Legal
Footnote at www.info.toshiba.com.
15
The revolutionary new nVIDIA GPU utilizes the
additional bandwidth of PCI Express to reach higher levels of graphics performance
than traditional graphics memory solutions. The nVIDIA GPU shares the capacity and
bandwidth of dedicated graphics memory and dynamically available system memory
for turbocharged performance and larger total graphics memory. The VRAM capacity
indicated in the NVIDIA display is the sum of the discrete graphics memory and the
maximum possible graphics memory allocated dynamically by the system memory.
The system memory capacity indicated in the Microsoft Windows PROPERTIES display
is the maximum possible system memory capacity without adjustment for any system
memory which may be dynamically allocated to the graphics system depending on
demand.
16
Due to FCC limitations, speeds of 53 kbps are the maximum permissible
transmission rates during download. Actual data transmission speeds will vary
depending on line conditions.
17
Weight may vary. See Weight Legal Footnote at www.
