The Toshiba Satellite A205 is a budget laptop with an HD-DVD drive, two things not normally associated with each other. At less than $1,000, it’s hard to argue with the value you’re getting, especially on a non-Celeron system. If you’re looking for an affordable laptop with an HD-DVD drive, the Satellite A205 is a good deal, assuming the HD-DVD format doesn’t die a slow death in 2008. While ideally we’d like to see 1080p and an HDMI out port, this is still a solid entry in 15.4-inch mainstream notebook category with the bonus of having a high-definition optical drive. Release: January 2008. Price: $900.
Pros: HD-DVD drive, great price, attractive paint job
Cons: 720p instead of 1080p, VGA instead of HDMI, paint scratches/smudges easily
