= 1,073,741,824 bytes, and therefore shows less storage capacity. Available storage capacity will also be less if the product includes one or more pre-installed operating
systems, such as Microsoft Operating System and/or pre-installed software applications, or media content. Actual formatted capacity may vary.

Optical Drive
. Due to manufacturing and quality variations in third party optical media (e.g., CD or DVD) or optical media players/recorders, in certain cases, your Toshiba optical
drive may not record on certain optical media that bear the applicable logo, or playback optical media recorded by other PCs or optical media recorders. Additionally, certain optical
media recorded on your optical drive may not playback or operate properly on other PCs or optical media players. These problems are not due to any defect in your Toshiba PC or
optical drive. Please refer to your PC's product specification for listing of specific format compatibilities.
Recording or viewing of certain optical media may be limited or prevented in accordance with applicable copy protection standards.

Display
. Small bright dots may appear on your screen display when you turn on your PC. Your display contains an extremely large number of thin-film transistors (TFT) and is
manufactured using high-precision technology. Any small bright dots that may appear on your display are an intrinsic characteristic of the TFT manufacturing technology. Over a
period of time, and depending on the usage of the computer, the brightness of the screen will deteriorate. This is also an intrinsic characteristic of the screen technology.
When the computer is operated on battery power, the screen with dim and you may not be able to increase the brightness of the screen while on battery power.

Graphics (Graphics Processing Unit)
.
GPU performance may vary depending on product model, design configuration, applications, power management settings and features utilized. GPU performance is only optimized
when operating in AC power mode and may decrease considerably when operating in battery power mode.
10
Wireless
. Wireless connectivity and some features may require you to purchase additional software, external hardware or services. Availability of public wireless LAN access
points may be limited. The transmission speed over the wireless LAN and the distance over which wireless LAN can reach may vary depending on surrounding electromagnetic
environment, obstacles, access point design and configuration, and client design and software/hardware configurations. The actual transmission speed will be lower than the
theoretical maximum speed. To use the Atheros SuperAG™ or SuperG™ wireless function, if available, your client and access point must support the corresponding feature.
Performance of these functions may vary depending on the format of data transmitted.
11
Wireless-N.
The 802.11a/g/n wireless adapter is based on a draft release version of the IEEE 802.11n specification, which may not be compatible with, or support all features
(e.g., security) of, certain Wi-Fi®
.

Weight
. Weight may vary depending on product configuration, vendor components, manufacturing variability and options selected.
13
Battery Life
. Battery life may vary considerably from specifications depending on product model, configuration, applications, power management settings and features utilized, as
well as the natural performance variations produced by the design of individual components. Published battery life numbers are achieved on select models and configurations
tested by Toshiba at the time of publication. See “Detailed Specs” for specific battery measurement test. Recharge time varies depending on usage. Battery may not charge while
computer is consuming full power. After a period of time, the battery will lose its ability to perform at maximum capacity and will need to be replaced. This is normal for all batteries.
To purchase a new battery pack, see the accessories information that shipped with your computer or visit the Toshiba web site at
www.accessories.toshiba.com
.
Battery life will be less than when using similar applications in the Windows Operating System
