#Staples microsoft office 2013 home and business windows 8#

15.6″ diagonal TFT display with 1366×768 native resolution – I liked the screen size.

I haven’t investigated into whether the HD can be upgraded or not. If this is going to be your primary machine, you may want to get an external hard drive (Staples sells them).

500 GB 5400 RPM SATA Hard Drive – this is a good entry-level size.

The nice thing is, the RAM can be upgraded to 16 GBs!

4GB DDR3 1066 MHz RAM – I believe this is the bare minimum that any computer should have in terms of memory.

Note, it’s not a hard-core gaming machine but for a child of 9 years, it’s more than adequate!

AMD Dual-Core E1-120 1.4 GHz 1MB Accelerated Cache processor – whew, that’s long, but what it translates to is that the CPU is responsive enough to handle a variety of tasks from playing games to watching movies.

Here are some specs of the Toshiba C855D-S5196 laptop: While I tend to gravitate towards higher-end laptops and computers, I do feel that this Toshiba had enough power, storage and features to make it a great laptop for any family environment. At $399 (I think it was actually $100 off a week or so ago), this is an extremely affordable computer for kids or students or for families on a tight budget.

For starters, the price point at Staples was quite reasonable for an entry-level Windows 8 laptop. Now this article is not a review of the Toshiba per se but I do think that it is important to provide a little bit of information about it. While my kids amused themselves, countlessly pushing the button, I headed off to set up this new Toshiba laptop. That red button disappeared into my kids’ room and I kept hearing the voice “that was easy” over and over again. When I opened the box, it wasn’t the laptop that actually got my kids’ attention at first, it was the big red button that had the word “easy” written across it. The Toshiba C855D-S5196 laptop arrived quickly in Staples packaging. So, when I received the Toshiba laptop courtesy of Staples, I made sure that I set it up with my youngest in mind.Īnd I was simply amazed at what transpired after that! The netbook she had was a bit “too small and slow” according to her. And since my youngest daughter’s homework requirements don’t typically require much computer time, she has been trudging along without her “own” laptop. We also have numerous laptops and netbooks available for fun and homework, but there is often a land-grab when it comes to who gets what laptop.

All members of my family (with the exception of my dog) have smartphones and access to tablets (my kids tend to stick to their iPhones though). Obviously, I’m no strangers to technology in the family. Who could say “no” to that type of a product offer? As luck would have it, one of the items I was offered to write about was a Toshiba laptop. Think furniture, HDTVs, Coffee Makers and even eco-conscious categorized products. While they do have all of the necessary essentials to keep your business or home office running, they also stock a wide variety of other products that are a bit more exciting, at least to me. Traditionally, when I thought about Staples, visions of boring office supplies came to mind. Sure, I said, thinking it would be a box of paper or a crate of paper clips or an assortment of binders. A few weeks ago, I was asked if I wanted to get some products from Staples to write about.
