  • Asus A8JR Review
    By PCMAN on April 30th, 2007 | No Comments Comments

    The A8JR uses an Intel Core 2 Duo T5500 processor, which runs at 1.66GHz. This is easily fast enough for day-to-day tasks like surfing the internet and office applications. It’s dual-core, so you can run optimised applications at impressive speeds and complete demanding tasks like video encoding quickly. There’s 1GB of RAM supplied, which is sufficient for running Windows Vista smoothly. If you need to upgrade to 2GB later, there’s an easily accessible spare memory slot available too.

    Windows Vista Home Premium is installed as standard, and it takes up the best part of 10GB of hard disk space. Fortunately, there’s plenty of room left over on the 160GB hard disk for storing big video files or an extensive music collection.

    Slim, sleek and shining through with features, the Samsung Q1P is designed to match the all the demands for high performance mobile computing with multimedia and the desire for a bold personal statement.

    The Q1P SSD is the most powerful UMPC model available today. Fueled by an impressive 32GB of SSD (solid-state NAND) flash memory, as opposed to the traditional 1.8″ Hard Drive found in the earlier Q1 models, the Q1P SSD model is ideal for those applications that require a no-compromise, high-performance mobile computing solution that can operate in diverse conditions.

    b145942.jpg

    The SSD reads 300 percent faster (53MB/s) and writes 150 percent quicker (28MB/s) than normal hard drives. As a result, multiple application programs can operate simultaneously and large volumes of data can be edited and reproduced more efficiently. The Microsoft Windows XP operating system will boot up 25-50% faster on the SSD than on other drives—good news for those in a hurry. Moreover, the typical 1.8-inch hard disk drive weighs around 50 grams; whereas the SSD is 20 to 30 grams lighter.
