Product description

Velocity Micro 15.4" Widescreen NoteMagix x25 Laptop Computer

Features

Mid-size notebook: The Velocity Micro NoteMagix x25 is a mid-size notebook, with high-performance processing power and entertainment features to rival most desktops. This notebook is equipped to handle demanding applications as well as high-end graphics.

Dual core/64-bit processing: The 2.66GHz Core 2 Duo E6700 has two processing engines that work in tandem, providing much more power than standard 2.66GHz processors. This processor is also capable of processing 64 bits of information at once, twice as much as standard 32-bit processors.

  • This notebook features 2GB of advanced DDR2 system memory—enough for all but the most demanding users, gamers and multimedia professionals.
  • Data travels to the processor along the frontside bus. The faster data travels, the faster everything works. This notebook features a 667MHz frontside bus.
  • L2 caches keep data neat, organized, and nearby so processors can retrieve it quickly. This 4MB L2 cache is very large, providing a potentially strong boost in performance.

Hard drive: This hard drive features a 200GB capacity—perfect for an impressive collection of music, movies and multimedia. This drive’s data disks spin at 7200rpm, providing faster-than-average access to your files.

Versatile wireless: Built-in 802.11agn wireless LAN lets you connect in almost any airport lounge, café or public hotspot.

Built-in Bluetooth™: Enjoy easy communication with PDAs and other Bluetooth-enabled devices.

Combo drive: Use the DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive to play DVDs or burn CDs to share your files, music mixes, photos and more.

Widescreen display: This notebook features a gorgeous 15.4" high-definition widescreen display with 1680 x 1050 pixel (WSXGA+) resolution. Your documents and movies will look fantastic.

Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium: Windows Vista Home Premium is the operating system for homes with advanced computer needs. And Vista Premium features the elegant new Aero interface. You’ll be able to use your notebook more effectively and enjoy new entertainment experiences—all with the benefit of added security and reliability.

High-end audio/video: This notebook features advanced NVIDIA GeForce 8600GT graphics and 512MB of dedicated video memory, an addition to the main system memory. This high-end memory is great for more demanding games or video editing.

Get connected: One FireWire, one S-Video and three USB 2.0 ports let you connect to TVs, cameras, peripherals and more.

ExpressCard/54 slot: ExpressCard is an emerging standard in smaller, faster PC card solutions. This slot is compatible with ExpressCard/54 as well as ExpressCard/34. Use it to add memory, graphics upgrades and security devices—or to store the remote control.

Fingerprint reader: Use individual fingerprints in lieu of standard passwords to access online accounts, such as banks and email. If more than one person uses the notebook, each can use a fingerprint to logon to a computer user account and access preset preferences and files.

8-in-1 media card reader: Seamlessly transfer images from your digital camera, MP3 player or camcorder. This extremely versatile 8-in-1 reader is compatible with MultiMedia Card (MMC), Secure Digital, Mini-SD, xD, Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro, Memory Stick Duo and Memory Stick Pro Duo.

Built-in camera/mic: Stay connected to family, friends or business associates wherever you go. Video chatting face-to-face is easy with the built-in camera and microphone.

Software bundle:
Windows Vista Home Premium
Nero Digital Creation Suite
3DMark06

I'm a college student, and I was looking around for something with desktop power in a notebook. This was the ONLY one I found in the 15.4' screen size, and it fit the bill perfectly.
The true advantage of this notebook is its upgradeability, which means you can switch out the processor, ram, hard drive, disk drive (if you want to put in a Blu-Ray or HD-DVD drive, you can), and graphics without voiding the warranty of the laptop!
Either way, this is a great choice for someone who wants desktop power with laptop portability!

Great replacement to a desktop if you want to be mobile.

I've had mine for over a year now and am very pleased with it. I have not had any problems with vista primium, although some of my older programs will not work with it.The system is very fast, and reliable. I have a bluetooth headset and mouse that hookedup almost instantly. The finger print reader is a god send with its programable sites and passwords.(just scan your finger, click on the site you want to go to, and its stored passwords take you right to it) As long as you are plugged in,you'd swear youwere on a desk top.The speed,graphics, and reliability are awsome. Battery life stinks though,only 1/2 an hour on performance and 1 hour on power save.It doesn't shut down on you though,goes to sleep, and returns you to what you were doing once you plug it back in.Thought bout putting a quad core in it just to see what it will do.Max memory is 2 gigs,don't need it but want more.I'm wondering if its possible to install more and if not why.Won mine on ebay for 900.00 and keep it in the arm of my chair whilewatching TV, rarely get on my desktop any more.
