IRVINE, Calif. (Business Wire EON) July 14, 2008 -- "The Toshiba Tecra M10 and Tecra A10 laptops provide the real-world mobile computing features that our business customers need most -- in the office or while traveling," said Jeff Barney, general manager and vice president, Digital Products Division, Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc. "These new laptops give Toshiba's customers the clear competitive edge and deliver Toshiba's mission of creating innovative laptop PCs that improve the productivity and lives of our business customers."

Toshiba's Tecra M10 and Tecra A10 laptops include the following leading-edge technologies:

Intel® Centrino® 2 with vProTM Technology: This new micro-architecture helps keep mobile workforces, managed and secure. With hardware-assisted remote isolation, diagnostics and repair, IT professionals can manage their mobile workforce wirelessly, even if the laptop's operating system is unresponsive. Intel® Centrino® 2 with vProTM technology also provides users with industry-leading performance, including faster wireless connectivity speeds(3) and longer battery life(4). EasyGuard Technology: The Tecra M10 and Tecra A10 are Toshiba's first laptops to incorporate Toshiba's fourth-generation EasyGuard technology, including HDD protection, spill-resistant keyboard(5), SmartCard reader, fingerprint reader and Trusted Platform Module (TPM). Webcam with Business Card Reader Software: Toshiba expanded the functionality of the standard 1.3 megapixel Webcam by integrating macro functionality with business card reader software to allow users to scan business cards and store them digitally on the Tecra M10 and Tecra A10 laptops. Common Motherboards: To better reduce the cost for customers and simplify the deployment of new laptops, the Tecra M10 and Tecra A10 feature a common motherboard and image, allowing companies to qualify both systems by qualifying one. This value-added feature also helps to lower the cost of service and support. eSATA/USB 2.0 Combo Port: With an increased emphasis on data backup and protection, Toshiba incorporated an eSATA port to enable the high-speed transfer of files between the laptop and an external eSATA hard drive with transfer rates that are up to five times faster than standard USB 2.0. Sleep-and-Charge USB Port(6): All Tecra M10 and Tecra A10 laptop PCs feature Sleep-and-Charge USB ports, which enable users to charge select mobile devices, such as cell phones, MP3 players and PDAs whether the computer is on, off, in sleep mode or hibernation mode. Solid State Drive Option: Toshiba offers a full Build-to-Order configurability(7) on these Tecra laptop series, allowing customers to add a 64 or 128 GB solid-state drive(8) for enhanced reliability. Green Attributes: The Tecra M10 and A10 laptops are ENERGY STAR® 4.0 compliant and have achieved a Bronze status through the Green Electronics Council's Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool (EPEAT).

As a responsible global corporate citizen, Toshiba makes all new laptops to be RoHS-compatible(11), effectively reducing the environmental impact by restricting the use of lead, mercury and certain other hazardous substances. During the third quarter of 2008, Toshiba will offer a computer trade-in and recycling program for all manufacturers' PCs with no obligation for the consumer to purchase a Toshiba product.
