When it comes to laptops, there is certainly no shortage of choices and Toshiba certainly knows how to keep up with the completion. Let’s take a detailed look at the Toshiba Tecra R10 Series to find out just what this laptop has, if it has the features that fit your needs and what its capabilities are. We will also look at build and design, as this is an important element as well. In surveys, the Toshiba Tecra R10 Series rates farily high, on average it receives a four out of five in just about every user survey given. However, let’s take a detailed look at this machine and perhaps we will learn exactly why this is.

One of the most impressive features of the Toshiba Tecra R10 Series is the screen. While there are many other important elements to a laptop, we must admit that the screen is up there near the top of the list. If you can’t stand looking at the screen, you’re not going to get much work done or enjoy using the machine. The Toshiba Tecra R10 Series has a widescreen display with fairly good size, a bit over fourteen inches, 14.1 to be exact. The widescreen offers several benefits including better ability for a user to play games and multitask. In addition, this type of viewing allows you to keep more window opens, without needing to minimize them, always a nice plus.

Longer-Lasting Batteries for Notebook Computers

Filed under: News

Conventional lithium-ion batteries in laptops quickly lose their ability to store energy and can catch fire if they’re overcharged or damaged. Now researchers at Argonne National Laboratory in Argonne, IL, have developed composite battery materials that can make such batteries both safer and longer lived, while increasing their capacity to store energy by 30%.

Last month, the researchers took a significant step toward commercializing the technology by licensing it to a major materials supply company, Toda Kogyo, based in Japan. The company has the capacity to make the materials for about 30 million laptop batteries a year, says Gary Henriksen, who manages electrochemical storage research at Argonne.

The new materials are one example of a new generation of li-ion electrode chemistries that address the shortcomings of conventional li-ion batteries. Each has its own trade-offs. For example, another material called lithium iron phosphate has better safety and durability than Argonne’s materials, but it stores somewhat less energy than conventional li-ion batteries. Argonne’s materials improve on the safety and reliability of today’s notebook batteries, while also storing more energy…
