    We're starting to think Toshiba's got more Satellites than NASA, but for those that can't squeeze together the cash for a new A or M Series laptop, Tosh has its L600 or C600 machines standing close by. The 13-inch L635, 14-inch L645, 15.6-inch L655, and 17.3-inch L675 have all been remodeled with that new Fusion X2 finish, which looks glossy from afar but is actually fingerprint resistant. They don't get the new chiclet keyboards, but the flush keys are smooth and there are dedicated right / left mouse buttons under the touchpad. Internally there's your pick of Intel Core i3, Core i5 CPUs and AMD Athlon II, Turion II dual-core, Phenom II Triple Core and Quad Core processors. While the entry level $515 model won't be equipped with the discrete ATI Radeon 5145 GPU, it'll be a configuration option. Lower down on the spectrum you've got the 14-inch C645 and 15.6-inch C655, which are your typical set of bargain basement laptops. Both are available with Intel Celeron and Pentium processors as well as AMD's Athlon V120 chip. Not the most attractive pair of laptops we've seen, but it's hard to complain when they start at $449. Check them out for yourself in the gallery below, and then hit the break for more details in the full press release. %Gallery-95179% %Gallery-95199%
