"Toshiba Corp plans to announce a new laptop model next week that allows users to watch TV on it without having to boot up the computer's Windows operating system—the first in what analysts say will be a new crop of multimedia notebooks to come," reports AP.
"Called Qosmio, (koss-me-oh) it will be Toshiba's first laptop to fully integrate audio and video features, including a bright, near TV-quality display, DVD drive, TV tuner, and enhanced speakers. A user could click on the TV with the laptop's remote control or watch a DVD movie without having to go through the all-too-familiar process of starting the accompanying Windows Media Center operating system."
