Axiz has announced the immediate availability of the two new HPCompaq business notebooks - the nc6000 and the nc8000, according to Margie Adam, acting product manager for HP notebooks and iPaqs at Axiz.
"The HP Compaq nc6000 is stylishly designed for mobile professionals with its 14-inch display, versatile MultiBay and up to five hours of battery life. Its durable magnesium and composite design and light weight of 2.28kg make it particularly well-suited to tough itinerant settings," she comments.
Adam explains that the nc6000 offers a variety of security attributes and connectivity alternatives to facilitate the protection of intellectual property and stay connected regardless of where users connect. She continues: "This notebook takes a more secure hardware approach to data protection through HP Protect Tools Embedded Security, which is compliant with the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) standard."
Other features of the nc6000 include: tri-mode or dual-mode 802.11 wireless LAN capabilities, integrated Bluetooth, a gigabit LAN controller, integrated infrared, a common software image, docking solutions, a DVD+RW drive, and a secure digital slot of maximum expandability.
The other machine HP has announced - the nc8000 - is built for power users that require desktop functionality in a mobile package. It incorporates additional security features compliant with the TCG standard and provides a secure, hardware based approach to protecting digital certificates and other cryptographic keys for authentication and data protection.
"Key attributes in this model are the Intel Pentium M processors, ATI Mobility Radeon 9600 Pro graphics controller, high-resolution displays, large fast hard drives, the integrated Secure Digital flash media slot, the 15-inch display, and the ability to support a fixed optical drive and a MultiBay device," states Adam.
Both notebooks retail from R14 999 including VAT.
