    CNET Review

    May 12, 2008

    The Good: Stylish new design; charges USB devices, even when off; big hard drive.

    The Bad: Glossy finish attracts fingerprints; way too much bloatware; Sleep-and-Charge feature is turned off by default; slower AMD processor.

    The Bottom Line: Toshiba rolls out its new Satellite look to the basic 15-inch AMD-powered Satellite A305D, but others offer more for the same $999.
