Hi there,
From the description:
"...This Toshiba black 15.6" laptop PC comes pre-installed with..."
As for the terminology, it is a little confusing these days. Once upon a time, a laptop and a a notebook style computer were different enough in size and weight for there to be a different term applied to each. Now, the words laptop and notebook are pretty much used interchangeably.
The one you have to watch out for is: "NETbook."
These are the tiny ones with no optical drives.
Yes the drive on this is internal, and while we are on that topic, I would like to give you a clue in case you shop elsewhere: If the drive is external, they will try and sell it to you separately.
It is safe to assume any optical drive listed in the specs is internal, unless stated otherwise.
One more thing: The one you listed is a single core processor. That is a VERY bad investment these days. Dual-core should be your minimum choice... trust me on that. You will instantly regret buying a single core computer these days.
Good luck laptop shopping!
