Graphics

Display

Intel Core i5 with vPro and Core i7 with vPro technology is a selectable feature that is available on units configured with an Intel Centrino® Ultimate-N/Advanced-N 6000 series WLAN module and a preinstalled Windows operating system. It provides advances in remote manageability, security, energy efficient performance, and wireless connectivity. Intel Active Management Technology (AMT) offers built-in manageability and proactive security for networked notebook PCs, even when they are powered off* or when the operating system is inoperable. It can help identify threats before they reach the network, isolate infected systems, and update PCs regardless of their power state.

*Requires a Windows operating system, network hardware and software, connection with a power source, and a direct (non-VPN) corporate network connection which is either cable or wireless LAN.

NOTE:

Some functionality of Intel Core i5 with vPro/Core i7 with vPro technology, such as Intel Active Management technology and Intel Virtualization technology, requires additional 3rd party software in order to run. Availability of future "virtual appliances" applications for Intel Core i5 with vPro/Core i7 with vPro technology is dependent on 3rd party software providers. Compatibility with future "virtual appliances" is yet to be determined.

Dual-channel

* With some processors, memory bus runs at a maximum of 1066 MHz.

NOTE:

Due to the non-industry standard nature of some third-party memory modules, we recommend HP branded memory to ensure compatibility. If you mix memory speeds, the system will perform at the lower memory speed. Full availability of 4 GB or more of memory requires a Windows 64-bit operating system or Linux. With Windows 32-bit operating systems, the amount of usable memory is dependent upon your configuration, so that above 3 GB all memory may not be available due to system resource requirements.

* The term "10/100/1000" or "Gigabit" Ethernet indicates compliance with IEEE standard 802.3ab for Gigabit Ethernet, and does not connote actual operating speed of 1 Gb/s. For high-speed transmission, connection to a Gigabit Ethernet server and network infrastructure is required.

** Designed for downloads from 56K modem compliant sources. Maximum achievable download transmission rates currently do not reach 56 KB/s, and will vary with line conditions. Modem availability is subject to country regulatory approval.

NOTE:

Four memory slots only on models with quad-core processor.

Upgradeable to 16384 MB with (4) 4096 MB SODIMMs

Maximized dual-channel performance requires SODIMMs of the same size and speed in both memory channels.

Wireless Devices

Support for a broad range of secure, integrated wireless LAN and wireless WAN options featuring support for the latest industry standards. Wireless LAN is factory configurable or available as an option to be added later. Mobile Broadband (WWAN) requires a Windows operating system and is available in select countries as a standard, factory configurable feature or as an option to be added later. Integrated Bluetooth is also available (factory configurable only) and can be combined with any of the supported wireless LAN and wireless WAN options.

The HP spill-resistant keyboard is designed using a thin layer of Mylar film under the keyboard and a drain system that funnels fluid through a hole in the bottom of the notebook. This minimizes the risk of damage to sensitive components underneath. The 101/102-key compatible keyboard features an industry standard, full-pitch key layout with desktop keyboard features, such as the isolated inverted-T cursor control keys, editing keys, both left and right control and alt keys, and 12 function keys. U.S. and International key layouts are available. Includes a full numeric keypad, hotkeys for instant access to power conservation, brightness, and other features. It has 19.05 x

19.05 mm key pitch (center-to-center spacing) and 2.5 mm stroke.

HP DuraKeys is a clear coating applied over the notebook keyboard that helps protect the finish and the printed characters on the keys. HP DuraFinish helps protect the finish on the keyboard deck, graphics, and icons from normal wear and tear.

Touch-sensitive controls provide easy access to the following features: HP QuickLook 3, HP QuickWeb, wireless on/off, touchpad on/off, volume mute, volume down, volume up, and calculator button.

If you mix memory speeds, the system will perform at the lower memory speed. Full availability of 4 GB or more of memory requires a Windows 64-bit operating system or Linux. With Windows 32-bit operating systems, the amount of usable memory is dependent upon your configuration, so that above 3 GB all memory may not be available due to system resource requirements.
