Toshiba rolls out six new entrants in Satellite A205 / P205 lineups

Apparently Toshiba has been shoring up refreshes to its Satellite series of laptops, as the company has recently decided to bust out six new Labelflash-compliant models simultaneously to really get your head spinning when wading through the options. Up first is the trio of models in the P205 lineup, which represents "the company's latest 17-inch (1,440 x 900-pixel resolution) laptop line with a starting price of less than $1,000." The S637, S6267, and S6287 models all sport sub-2GHz Intel processors, up to 2GB of RAM, dual-layer SuperMulti drives, Vista Home Premium, 120GB to 200GB of hard drive space, WiFi, and Harmon Kardon speakers as well. The 15.4-inch A205 series includes the S4577, S4617, and S4639, and these models sport a 1,280 x 800 resolution, optional webcam, 802.11n, sub-1.7GHz Intel Core 2 Duo chips, up to 2GB of RAM, dual-layer DVD burner, integrated speakers, biometric scanner, NVIDIA's GeForce Go 7300 graphics, and Windows Vista runnin' the show. Click on to the links below for a bit more detail on the specifications, and in case any variety particularly catches your eye, you'll be delighted to know that the whole litter is available right now.

I certainly wouldn't even consider buying a notebook by any other company than Toshiba. My last 6 have all been Toshiba's and have NEVER let me down once - and the only reason I have changed is either due to my own fault with physical damage (coffee & notebooks don't mix well even though Toshiba now use spill resistant keboards on their notebooks) or I fancy a faster model after a couple of years.
Now anybody got any idea where I can get a Socket M Core2Duo from in the UK??? I fancy replacing the Yonah chip in this notebook here with a C2D but Toshiba used Socket M on the motherboard (and yes I have checked that the chipset can handle a C2D).
