Manufacturer description
Truly incredible desktop functionality in a stylish and slim notebook form; this encapsulates the TravelMate 420 series. Whether it's an important business proposal, graphic-hungry game, or the latest movie, this portable, commercial-performance PC has got it covered. Serious computing power and all the multimedia performance one might expect in a desktop are now not only road-worthy, but also priced right.
Perhaps the most outstanding feature of the TravelMate 420 is its ability to offer genuine desktop performance in a mobile computer. At the heart of this performance is Intel Pentium 4 processor. What truly separates the TravelMate 420 series from the crowd, however, is dramatic and intelligent thermal design improvements that allow for greater heat dissipation, as well as a thinner and lighter form factor. What this means for business users is a PC more capable of advanced tasks, facilitating greater achievement, and making users look ever more professional. Whether it's processing or improved thermal design, the TravelMate 420 goes the extra step to ensure mobile users they are sacrificing nothing while making the leap from a traditional desktop to a more versatile desktop-performance notebook.
