Toshiba laptop seemed to have disappeared from American retailers in recent year , but they ’re finally coming back with a new name . From here on out Toshiba ’s America computing machine business enterprise will be anticipate Dynabook , and it ’s run to be found a asshole net ton of laptop .
But where the sin has Toshiba been ? In 2015 a$1.2 billion scandalrocked the companionship leave to the surrender of the CEO , two former CEOS , and multiple other high - level employees . By 2016 , it was look for a $ 2.5 billion line of deferred payment to keep afloat . Laptops and TVs were n’t quite the priority for the nigh 150 - year - old Nipponese tech corporation .
Then last year it finalized the sales event of 80.1 - percentage of its personal computer business to Sharp . The new business is Toshiba , but not Toshiba , because it ’s also possess by Sharp . Confusing is n’t it ? That ’s why it ’s now telephone Dynabook .

Less confusing !
Dynabook will still honor warranties on Toshiba computer you have , but going forward these laptop will have Dynabook stigmatization . And there will be a mess of laptops . By my count Dynabook will found 11 unlike laptops , plus an AR headset made in collaboration with Vuzix .
The laptops , seem to primarily be enterprise devices meant to be sold in bulk to business . They range in price from $ 600 to $ 2,000 and are equipped with standard stuff and nonsense like seventh and 8th Gen U - series GPUs from Intel , solid DoS drives , and fingerprint readers .
But , at least at a glimpse , they ’re scarce innovative devices . alternatively , they depend almost like Toshiba plainly picked up where it left off in 2016 : stylize aluminum lids , gaudy two - tone color schemes , boastful honking bezels , and in some cases , videodisc drives and serial ports .
I do n’t fuck if relaunching a firebrand with serial ports , disc drive , and really lame stylings is exactly the best move , but more handsome brands making laptops is usually a good thing , and Toshiba did spend three years not making laptops in the U.S. thing could turn around !
We ’ll bed more as this laptop , and next Dynabook devices , become available and we can get our hand on them for review . For now , you’re able to check out the Dynabook website…atus.toshiba.com .
