      2eWEEK Labs Walk-through: Toshiba Portege R500-S5003 – More Than Meets the Eye

      The Toshiba Portege R500-S5003 weighs just 1.72 pounds, but its 64GB solid-state drive gives the machine more muscle than its weight might imply.

      When the Portege R500 series was released last year, it held the record as the world’s thinnest notebook. The MacBook Air has since broken the R500-S5003’s 0.77-inch record, touting a notebook with a thickness of 0.76 inches.

      When compared to the MacBook Air, the Portege wins on a lot of different levels. For example, it boasts three USB ports (versus the Air’s one), and it’s equipped with a 10/100/100 Ethernet adapter.
