Toshiba announces Tecra M11 business notebook


Toshiba has unveiled the latest member in their business class series of notebooks. The Tecra M11 will debut with prices starting as low as $879, featuring a 14-inch 1366 x 768 LED backlit screen, 2.13GHz Core i3 processor, Intel's integrated graphics, 2GB of RAM, a 250GB hard drive and a DVD burner.

Toshiba offers a handful of pre-built models to choose from, including one that bumps the hard drive to 320GB for a mere $20 more, another sporting a faster Core i5 430M and 3GB of RAM which brings the price up to $1,029, and a third one that adds an Nvidia Quadro NVS 2100M graphics card on top of that for a total cost of $1,229. All of them come with Windows 7 Professional (64-bit) installed, a charcoal black exterior and a 6-cell battery.

Other than that you can configure the Toshiba Tecra M11 with up to 8GB of RAM, a 2.66Ghz Core i7 processor and a 128GB SSD. In terms of ports and connectivity, you can expect Wi-Fi 802.11 a/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR, one ExpressCard, two USB 2.0 ports and one eSATA/USB 2.0 port with Sleep and Charge.
