i7-4700MQ Processor (2.4GHz - 3.4GHz)
16GB DDR3L (1600MHz)
1TB (5400rpm) with Toshiba HDD Accelerator
nVIDIA GeForce GT 740M 2GB with Optimus + Intel HD Graphics 4600
17.3" Widescreen HD+ with LED Backlit Display (1600x900)
2xUSB3.0 &2xUSB2.0
The 'overview' on both that page and DSE's is a bit misleading as it doesn't match the specs. For example, the overview describes the screen as Full HD, the specs say 1600x900. Overview suggests it has Blu-ray reader, specs say otherwise. Overview says 745M graphics, specs say 740M.
bit worrying isn't it when even the manufacturer can't even get the info 100% consistent correct.
According to Toshiba there are three types of P70 laptops

According to this guy, the A10D is not full HD. The A01C is FHD and comes with Bluray, the more premium model.
He starts talking about the screen at 3:00 mark

One thing missing and that is SSD storage
Does it come with blu-ray player?
5400 mhz hard drive, gotta be happy with that
= 324billion RPM - very cool
Now its $1,899, so it was $800 off, which is also similar to TGG or HN price
$900 off not $800 but $1,899 is RRP which no one pays.
So I pulled the trigger and bought one. I received the tracking number so it will be delivered today…
Further research has made me very happy. I want it for DSLR video editing - low-level doco work.
Intend to add an SSD in the spare bay and when/if I need FHD I can plug in an external monitor via the "HDMI® 4K2K output"…
