Continue up the ladder with the 16-inch, 2.1GHz Toshiba Satellite A505-S6973 laptop which we found last week at Amazon.com, which still carries the sale price of $649.99 with FREE shipping included. The Toshiba offers a larger memory capacity enabling users to upgrade to a maximum of 8GB, and allows for upgrading to a 500GB hard drive. Although the featured product does work well for daily processing tasks and students going to school, the Toshiba is designed to handle high-media needs such as gaming or people in the graphic design business. Regardless of which laptop you settle on pair it up with the refurbished Logitech cordless laser mouse and keyboard combo, which has actually dropped in price by $1 since we found it almost four weeks ago, bringing it down to only $16.99 with shipping rates starting at $12.99 and located at eCost.com.
