Averatec AV4155-EH1

The Averatec AV4155-EH1 Basics:
The Averatec AV4155-EH1 13.3" laptop computer, features amenities not normally found in a laptop of this size and in this price range. Brandishing an efficient yet powerful and futuristic 64-bit processor, surprisingly generous storage space and solid DVD and CD facilities, the Averatec AV4155-EH1 is a compact and visually appealing traveling companion. Its 3D graphics capabilities are somewhat suspect and its battery life is not quite as good as expected given the efficient processor, but its price is right and its portability excellent.

Averatec AV4155-EH1 Processor:
The Averatec AV4155-EH1 is equipped with one of today's newest processors, an AMD Turion 64. Similar to AMD's well-received Athlon 64 processor (a built-for-the-desktop CPU that muscles its way through today's 32-bit applications yet is also ready for the future breed of faster 64-bit apps), but with integrated power-saving technologies, the Turion 64 is a smart choice for forward-looking laptop computer users. This model, the 1.6 GHz Turion 64 MT30, is one of the affordable and least powerful in the Turion 64 lineup, and is therefore fast enough for most typical laptop PC applications but will not be ideal for demanding users who regularly push their computers with complex, power-intensive tasks.

Averatec AV4155-EH1 Memory:
The Averatec AV4155-EH1 laptop incorporates 512 MB RAM. This is a typical allotment for today's midlevel laptops and certainly enough to ensure good performance during stressful multitasking situations.

Averatec AV4155-EH1 Video:
This laptop features an integrated graphics chipset that will effectively run 2D graphics (such as those found in spreadsheets and word processors, the Internet, and some games), but shouldn't be counted upon to efficiently display high-end 3D games or sophisticated 3D animation.

Averatec AV4155-EH1 Display:
Though the Averatec AV4155-EH1 is definitely a compact laptop computer, it nevertheless boasts a surprisingly large 13.3-inch display that features a panoramic, movie-friendly widescreen format and Averatec's respected AveraBrite technology for brighter, crisper imaging.

Averatec AV4155-EH1 Hard Disk:
The Averatec AV4155-EH1 offers a super spacious 80 GB of storage space-more than enough room for a broad range of applications and also a library of space-gobbling music and/or multimedia files.

Averatec AV4155-EH1 Optical Drive:
This system sports a Multi-Format DVD +/- Burner. Please note that it does not support double layer DVDs (twice the available storage of traditional DVDs).

Averatec AV4155-EH1 Audio:
The unit is equipped with a pair of miniature speakers, a mini microphone jack and a stereo mini headphone jack.

Averatec AV4155-EH1 Keyboard and Controls:
You'll control your AV4155-EH1 laptop via a full size keyboard and touchpad.

Averatec AV4155-EH1 Connectivity and Expansion:
The Averatec AV4155-EH1 laptop offers both wired and wireless connectivity options, including a 56K modem for low-speed dial-up Internet and email access, a LAN port for high-speed wired network and Internet, and integrated 802.11b/g wireless for fast cord-free e-communication via today's two most popular standards, Wireless-B and the much faster Wireless-G. Other key amenities include three high-speed USB 2.0 ports for plug and play devices such as external drives and digital cameras, an IEEE 1394 FireWire port (commonly used for quick data uploads from digital camcorders), a 4-in-1 card reader for reading today's most popular memory cards, and an S-Video output for high quality digital video feeds.

Averatec AV4155-EH1 Operating System and Software:
Averatec's minimalist software bundle includes today's most popular operating system, Microsoft's Windows XP Home Edition.

Averatec AV4155-EH1 Dimensions and Weight:
At 12.44 by 8.81 by 1.35 inches and a mere 4.7 lbs, the Averatec AV4155-EH1 is much smaller and far easier to carry than the majority of notebooks currently on the market.

Averatec AV4155-EH1 Power:
The unit is equipped with a Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery that delivers 2.0 hours between charges. This is not a particularly stellar stat for a notebook featuring a typically efficient Turion 64 CPU.
