Product Description
Satisfy all your AV411 cravings wherever you roam with the Toshiba
Qosmio F45-AV411 notebook PC, which features a widescreen 15.4-inch
screen, crisp audio from the Harman Kardon speakers with subwoofer, and
integrated media control buttons on either side of the keyboard. A 1.3
megapixel digital web camera built into the LCD's bezel lets you
quickly snap photos and participate in live video chats. The
dual-layer/multi-format DVD drive also burns CDs, and can print labels
directly onto discs with the integrated Labelflash functionality.
This notebook is powered by the 1.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo T5450
processor, which provides an optimized, multithreaded architecture for
improved gaming and multitasking performance, as well as excellent
battery management. It also includes Intel's 4965 AGN wireless LAN,
which will connect to draft 802.11n routers and offers compatibility
with 802.11a/b/g networks as well. Other features include a 200 GB hard
drive, 2 GB of installed RAM (4 GB maximum), 1 GB of Intel Turbo
Memory, Intel GMA X3100 video card with up to 256 MB of shared video
RAM, 5-in-1 memory card reader, and a biometric fingerprint scanner for
added security. Additionally, this Toshiba notebook is RoHS-compatible,
effectively reducing the environmental impact by restricting the use of
lead, mercury and certain other hazardous substances.
Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate combines all the features of Windows
Vista Premium and Vista Business as well as adds extras such as
multi-language packs and Secure Online Key Backup. It offers all of the
features found in Windows Vista Home Premium, including Windows Media
Center, Windows Movie Maker with high-definition support, and Windows
DVD Maker. It also provides all of the features found in Windows Vista
Business, including business networking, centralized management tools,
and advanced system backup features. Vista also integrates new search
tools throughout the operating system, includes new parental control
features, and offers new tools that can warn you of impending hardware
failures.
The Basics
Processor: The Intel Core 2 Duo T5450 processor has a 1.66
GHz processor speed, super-fast 667 MHz front-side bus (FSB), and 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.)
With two computational execution cores in a single
processor, it provides 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 Microsoft Windows Vista operating system. 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. Some of the
advanced Intel innovations of the Core 2 Duo processor include:
Smart Memory Access: Improves system performance by hiding
memory latency, thus optimizing the use of available computer data
bandwidth to provide data to the processor when and where it is needed.
Advanced Digital Media Boost: Effectively doubles the
execution speed for instructions used widely in multimedia and graphics
applications.
Dynamic Power Coordination: Coordinates Enhanced Intel
SpeedStep Technology and idle power-management state (C-states)
transitions independently per core to help save power.
Deeper Sleep with Dynamic Cache Sizing: Saves power by
flushing cache data to system memory during periods of inactivity to
lower CPU voltage.
Hard Drive: The 200 GB Serial ATA hard drive is about
double the average size for notebook PCs, however its 4200 RPM speed is
a bit slower than current standard hard drives. It provides more than
enough capacity for storing a large audio and video library, as well as
extra space required for video editing. This SATA hard drive also
quickens the pace with a higher speed transfer of data--akin to
FireWire and USB 2.0.
Memory: The 2 GB of installed RAM (2 x 1 GB DDR2, PC5300)
is an excellent start, but you'll want to add more RAM to handle
today's demanding multimedia and productivity suites. It provides two
DIMM slots and has a large 4 GB maximum RAM capacity. It also offers a
top-of-class 667 MHz speed.
It also includes 1 GB of Intel Turbo Memory, which stores
frequently used information near the processor, where it's more quickly
available, enabling your notebook to actually learn your habits and
thus provide better system response. This entirely new system
innovation for Windows Vista PCs is based on Performance Intel NAND
Flash Memory (like the memory used in an iPod or USB thumb drive),
together with supporting software.
DVD/CD Drive: The dual-layer Labelflash DVD drive is
compatible with a wide range of formats, including both DVD+RW and
DVD-RW discs, CD-RW discs, and dual-layer (DL) DVD+/-R discs, which can
hold up to 8.5 GB of data--great for backing up your MP3 collection or
your most important documents. It features the following speeds: 4x
DVD+R DL, 4x DVD-R DL, 8x for both single-layer DVD+R/-R, 4x DVD+RW, 4x
DVD-RW, 5x DVD-RAM, and 24x/16x for CD-R/RW. It reads DVD-ROM discs at
8x and CD-ROMs at 24x.
With the Labelflash functionality, you can burn
high-resolution, high-contrast pictures on the label side of DVD discs
using the same laser used for data recording. Enjoy transparency and
high-quality not found in traditional printable media. All you need is
a Labelflash DVD disc to start labeling without a printer.
Keyboard & Mouse: This notebook has a standard
86-key keyboard and electro-static two-button touchpad. It also offers
CD/DVD media player and control buttons (play, stop, next, previous) as
well as a volume control dial.
Screen, Video &
Audio
This notebook has a 15.4-inch TFT display with a resolution of 1280 x
800 pixels (native 720p for high-definition viewing). It also provides
TruBrite technology, which makes images brighter and more vivid thanks
to its anti-glare feature. Video is powered by the Intel Graphics Media
Accelerator X3100, which uses shared video memory (up to 256 MB
allocated from the system memory) and provides Windows Vista Aero
interface support and enhanced 3-D graphics performance--delivering
over 2x scores on 3-DMark 06. Intel Clear Video Technology provides
outstanding video playback with sharper image quality, increased
clarity, and customizable color controls. It also enables enhanced
visual quality of interlaced content on progressive displays. You'll
enjoy booming sound from the built-in Harman Kardon speakers with
integrated bass reflex subwoofer.
Networking, Connectivity & Expansion
Be ready for the next platform in wireless connectivity with this
notebook's integrated quad-mode Wi-Fi chip. Based on the draft 802.11n
Wi-Fi specification, it offers up to five times the performance and
twice the wireless range as existing 802.11g wireless. It's also
backward 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 (though no 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. You get
a good offering of connectivity 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
Analog video out: 1 S-Video and 1 VGA
1 ExpressCard 54/34
1 headphone jack (1 with S/PDIF digital audio
compatibility) and 1 microphone jack
The Windows Vista Ultimate operating system has it all--an advanced,
business-focused infrastructure, mobile productivity, and premium home
digital entertainment features. It offers all of the features found in
Windows Vista Home Premium, including Windows Media Center, Windows
Movie Maker with high-definition support, and Windows DVD Maker. It
also provides all of the features found in Windows Vista Business,
including business networking, centralized management tools, and
advanced system backup features. In addition, Windows Vista Ultimate
includes Extras such as:
