Toshiba Qosmio G40 Leak
Toshiba is readying a new version of its flagship Qosmio media center notebooks, according to leaked product shots and details. The Qosmio G40 will trade its signature black for white while also getting major performance upgrades. A 2GHz Core 2 Duo will remain, but the system will get much faster 512MB GeForce Go 8600 GT video for better 3D performance and an HDMI 1.3 output for producing deeper color on attached HDTVs. Toshiba will also fulfill its promise of HD DVD burning with an HD DVD-R drive and should back this up with dual 200GB hard disks for storage and 2GB of RAM.
Though not yet official, the G40 is expected to sell in Europe in June for 2999 Euros ($4,024). Pricing will likely be closer to $2999 in the US with a similar release date. A full photo of the system is available after the jump. [via PC INpact]
