Jeff Winter Presents Toshiba Laptops

By: Sandy Rand


Jeff Winter is Toshiba’s Regional Marketing Manager for New York and New Jersey. He provides training to salespeople, and Small and Medium Size Business Managers throughout the Northeast, and conducts product demonstrations at trade shows and corporate events throughout the country.

Toshiba Digital Products Division, a division of Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc. based in Irvine, CA, is a leading vendor for portable computers. In addition to notebooks, the company offers portable and wireless accessories, Pocket PCs and projectors for business customers. Through technology and innovation, Toshiba's products increase productivity and offer a wide array of applications that are complimentary to the mobile workforce.

Have you noticed how popular laptops have become? While the product has become much more powerful, at the same time, prices have fallen dramatically. Laptops, also known as notebooks, are the fastest growing category of personal computer.

If you look at reviews and/or ads for laptops, you’ll see that they are broken down into distinct categories. You’ll see such phrases as Desktop Replacement, Power User’s Laptop, Value, Wide Screen, Ultra Portable and Tablet PC.

Did you ever wonder which category makes sense for you? Jeff will demonstrate and discuss the various Toshiba models and how they fit the different types of users:

• Tecra M2 – For corporate end users

• Satellite W30 – Wide screen for home or business

• Tablet M200 – Award winning tablet

• Portege – Ultra portable

At the end of his presentation, Jeff will allow enough time for us to actually try his laptops. Come to the April meeting where you’ll be able to get your hands on a Toshiba.
