Toshiba Qosmio G35-AV650 17" Notebook PC (Intel Core Duo Processor T2500, 1 GB RAM, 200 GB Hard Drive, DVD SuperMulti Drive)

Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
Featuring a sleek, streamlined design, the Toshiba Qosmio G35-AV650 notebook PC provides you a powerful media center that you can take anywhere. It runs the Windows XP Media Center operating system, which enables you to save TV programming from the built-in TV tuner and save shows to the hard drive or burn to DVD via the dual-layer, multi-format DVD burner (which can also view new HD-DVD discs). It's powered by Intel's new, groundbreaking processor--the powerful Core Duo T2500--which provides an optimized, multithreaded architecture for improved gaming and multitasking performance and a more efficient power consumption. The dual execution core T2300 has a 2.0 GHz processor speed and 2 MB L2 cache. It features a widescreen 17-inch display, two 100 GB hard drives (for a massive 200 GB total), 1 GB of installed RAM (2 GB maximum), integrated tri-mode wi-fi connectivity (802.11a/b/g), and Bluetooth wireless connectivity.

The Basics

• Hard Drive: The G35-AV650 has a unique hard drive array for a notebook--two separate 100 GB (5400 RPM) hard drives for a total storage capacity of 200 GB. They can work together to boost performance, particularly when handling large files, and you can use one as an exclusive media drive for saved TV programming and an MP3 library.
  
• Processor: The Intel Core Duo T2500 processor is built with the Mobile Intel 945PM Express chipset, and it has a 2.0 GHz processor speed, super-fast 667 MHz front-side bus (FSB), and large 2 MB L2 cache. (An L2, or secondary, cache temporarily stores data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system's performance. The FSB carries data between the CPU and RAM, and a faster front-side bus will deliver better overall performance.)

  The Intel Core Duo processor has two computational execution cores in a single processor, providing greater system response when running multi-threaded applications simultaneously with no significant increase in power consumption. It's optimized for multitasking and is ready to support the next version of Microsoft Windows, code-named Vista. It can simultaneously run multiple demanding applications--such as graphics-intensive games or serious number-crunching business productivity applications--while downloading music or running virus-scanning security programs in the background. It's more efficient, thanks to Intel's Power Coordination and Deeper Sleep, which help to transfer power only to those areas of the processor that need it. It also features Intel's Digital Media Boost, which delivers enhanced performance on floating point-intensive applications such as CAD tools, 3D and 2D modeling, video editing, digital music, digital photography and gaming.
  

• Memory: The 1 GB of installed RAM (2 x 512 MB, PC5300, 667 MHz) is a good start for such a multimedia-centric notebook. But you'll want to max out the 2 GB (2 x 1024 MB) of available memory capability from the two slots.
  
• CD/DVD Drive: The double-layer DVD drive is compatible with a wide range of formats including the new high-definition HD-DVD discs and dual-layer DVD+R discs, which can hold up to 8.5 GB of data--great for backing up your MP3 collection. It features the following compatibility and speeds: HD DVD-ROM (1x), CD-ROM (24x), CD-R (16x), CD-RW (10x), DVD-ROM (8x), DVD-R (4x), DVD-RW (4x), DVD+R (Double Layer (2x)), DVD+RW (4x), DVD-RAM (3x). The format adopted by the DVD Forum, HD DVD technology allows you to enjoy movies in high definition. It enhances your notebook with brilliant visual detail and stunning sound. Movies featuring HD will play on the new Qosmio.
  
• Keyboard & Mouse: This notebook has a standard 85-key keyboard and electro-static two-button touchpad.

Screen, Graphics and Sound
The G35-AV650 has a 17-inch XGA display w with a resolution of 1440 x 900 pixels and a 16:9 aspect ratio, making it perfect for viewing widescreen format movies. It also provides TruBrite technology, which makes images brighter and more vivid thanks to its anti-glare feature and 350 cd/m2 brightness rating when plugged into the AC adapter (146 cd/m2 rating when in battery mode). The standard definition NTSC TV tuner offers such features as 3D Y/C comb filter (which dramatically reduces edge image artifacts while improving transition detail), digital noise reduction, closed captioning, and parental controls (V-Chip).

Video is powered by the Nvidia GeForce Go 7600 graphics card with 256 MB of dedicated video RAM. Nvidia's TurboCache feature increases the performance of this thin and light notebook PC without increasing its size or draining its battery. It's coupled with the PowerMizer 6.0 advanced power management technology, which significantly extends your notebook PCÕs battery life while minimizing the amount of heat it produces. It also features an integrated audio card that provides 16-bit stereo sound via the built-in Harman Kardon speakers as well as Dolby Home Theater virtual surround sound.

Connectivity and Expansion Slots
The G35-AV650 features an integrated PRO/Wireless 3945ABG wireless LAN that's compatible with 802.11b/g networks (commonly found in home routers and wi-fi hotspots) as well as 802.11a networks (which has a higher throughput, but more limited range--great for closed office environments). It also includes a next-generation ExpressCard 54/34 card slot (in addition to a standard PCMCIA slot), which lets you take advantage of thinner, faster, and lighter expansion cards for even more advanced wireless, networking, storage, and security features. With the Bluetooth wireless connectivity, you can synchronize and transfer files between the PC and peripherals such as cell phones and PDAs. You get a good offering of connectivity options, including both super-fast USB 2.0 and FireWire options:

• 4 USB 2.0 ports for connecting a wide range of peripherals--from digital cameras to MP3 players
• 1 FireWire (also known as IEEE 1394 or i.Link) port for connecting digital video camcorders and other peripherals
• 1 VGA monitor port
• 1 Composite video in
• 1 S-Video out, 1 S-Video out
• 1 HDMI audio/video out
• 1 fast infrared

• 1 microphone input

This notebook also has an integrated 56K modem (V.90) and an RJ-45 LAN network port (for a 10/100 Fast Ethernet connection to networks and DSL/cable modems).

Preloaded System and Software
The pre-installed Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 is essentially Windows XP Professional Edition with a variety of tools to help you to create, organize, and enjoy digital media ranging from music to home movies to photo slide shows. Additionally, it enables you to control your television with the included remote and record and pause programs (much like a DVR--or digital video recorder--such as Tivo or ReplayTV). It's compatible with cable, digital cable, satellite TV and antenna inputs, and it includes an FM tuner. It also comes preloaded with Microsoft Works 8.5, Microsoft Office 2003 OneNote, InterVideo WinDVD, SonicSolutions RecordNow, McAfee VirusScan (6-month trial), McAfee Internet Security Suite (30-day trial).
