Toshiba Portégé

Toshiba Portégé (dynabook Portégé in Japan) is a range of ultra-light laptops manufactured by Toshiba, where Portégé is the prefix name for each of the models in a current series.

Overview

The Toshiba Portégé is a high-end Ultrabook brand line from Toshiba. The Portégé series has a long line of several models, the latest being the 13.3 inch R30 series and the similar Z30 series. It is targeted to business professionals and is a lightweight series. Portégé laptops occasionally featured first-in-the-world technologies. R500 was one such machine, first of its kind in terms of form factor that provided an integrated DVD drive and was less than a kilogram in weight. Specifically, Portégé line and other Toshiba products can be found for sale at the Toshiba's website as well as at retail stores like Best Buy, PC Richards & Sons, Amazon.com, Newegg.com, and through Microsoft as well. The laptops are sold as either Z30s or R30s with a specific sub-classification which determines each Ultra book's specifications. Usually, models sold at each retail location are a little bit different.
