The Good: Reasonably priced; bright display; complete set of A/V controls, ports, and connections; attractive illuminated case; strong gaming performance.
The Bad: Display resolution could be higher; speaker volume not very loud; small touch pad and mouse buttons; no touch pad on/off button.
The Bottom Line: The Toshiba Satellite P105 offers a thorough set of features and strong gaming performance at a relatively affordable price.
