Toshiba's Satellite T135 was released in late 2009 and features a 13.3-inch LED-backlit display, weighs 3.9 pounds, is 1.35 inches thick, and runs the Windows 7 Home Premium operating system.

You can select from models with either an Intel Pentium SU2700 or Intel Pentium SU4100 processor which are Ultra Low Voltage for increased battery life up to 9 hours. You can also upgrade the T135 to a maximum of 8GB of DDR3 RAM and a 320GB of hard drive.

It comes with HDMI out, 802.11b/g/n WiFi, 10/00 Ethernet, two USB 2.0 ports, one eSATA/USB combo port, a 5-in-1 memory card reader, built-in webcam with face recognition, and Bluetooth 2.1+EDR.
