Just extract its shipping carton, the Toshiba NB200 captivated from the first glance. The colors brown / gray is particularly successful and different from those generally offered on netbooks, mostly white or black. In addition, Toshiba has opted not propose smooth glossy as it is generally customary. The NB200 receives for his part a raised area particularly pleasant to touch, also a visual effect rather successful. The screen lid is made of thin textured plastic with the Toshiba logo front and center in silver metalic plastic. Toshiba engineers made the interesting choice of placing the power button in the middle of the screen hinge where it is exposed even when the netbook is closed. At first I was concerned this might not be the best position since it means the power button could be accidentally triggered inside a backpack or laptop case, but the button is disabled if the screen lid is closed.
Two doors allow access to internal components. The smallest is dedicated to the location of the RAM while the second largest, contains the hard disk. However, the latter is closed by screws with no less star power, to be opened only by authorized persons. Unlike some of its competitors that focus on the audio quality of their netbook, Toshiba is satisfied with a simple single-chamber system on its NB200. Accordingly, sound quality is not his strong point. It shows nevertheless sufficient for a specific use. For better sound quality, it is probably better to use headphones.
With a maximum height of 30 mm, the NB200 is average. It easily manages to slip down a bag or a bag between two documents. Weight, 1.3 kg, it is comparable to that offered by its competitors. The PSU has a footprint content (96 × 43x29), while being light enough (130g). He slips and gets so easily forgotten in the bottom of a bag. The first impression with the new NB200 is positive. It has a particularly successful design, both original while remaining discreet and luxurious. The material used on the hull exterior is pleasant to the touch while offering the advantage of not being sensitive to fingerprints. The finish is particularly fine, the assemblies are adjusted to the millimeter. Toshiba makes a flawless here, see if the same is true for the interior.
