Toshiba Unveils Its Newest Business Laptop

Toshiba is not the first name that comes to mind when you think of a laptop. The company has been far from the list of top laptop manufacturers in the market for some time, but that doesn’t stop them from trying.

Its new Tecra X40 is a business-focused laptop with a few differentiating points over its rivals. The display here is a 14-inch 1080p (1920 x 1080) panel. However, the design is impressively-svelte and weighs 2.76 pounds to help reduce the footprint.
