Toshiba’s latest business notebook, the M300, won’t blow your hair back with whiz-bang features and record-shattering performance, but it’s a very solid package that covers all the basics one needs in a laptop that’s somewhere between an ultra-portable and a desktop replacement. This 14.1” notebook is tastefully appointed in a Titanium Silver finish, weighs just 5.2lbs, and has one of the best keyboards we’ve ever sampled in a notebook. Though its trialware issues and long boot time are easily remedied, its lack of security features –either biometric or facial recognition – are disappointing on a laptop aimed at business users. Overall it’s still a surprisingly well-polished machine that is extremely affordable and easy to live with.

The M300 uses an Intel platform that is based on the popular 965 chipset, with a Core 2 Duo T8300 “Penryn” CPU (though it’s the lower-rung chip with just 3MB of L2 cache instead of 6MB) clocked at 2.4GHz. It sports 2GB of DDR2 667MHz SDRAM, and also uses the onboard Intel X3100 graphics adapter as well as the A/G/N wireless and Bluetooth as well.
