Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
For those who demand high-end processing, Sony offers the speedy VAIO GRV680P Notebook. Measuring 1.8 by 14 by 11.8 inches and tipping the scales at 8.1 pounds (with battery) or 8.7 pounds (with battery and optical drive), the VAIO PCG-GRV680P is larger and heavier than many of today's new ultra-lightweight mobile computers. Yet it's also more powerful than most, with excellent 2-D performance, comparatively solid 3-D performance and integrated DVD burning capabilities.

Sporting a commanding 2.6 GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor with 512 KB of Level 2 cache, a 400 MHz bus and 512 MB of DDR SDRAM memory, the VAIO PCG-GRV680P is built to blast through most any application. Sony has complemented the system's powerful "engine" with an impressive 64 MB ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 video acceleration chipset to make quick work of graphics-intensive 3-D applications and all but the most demanding 3-D games. The unit's integrated 60 GB hard disk offers plenty of room to store important files and programs, and its detachable DVD+/DVD-RW/CD-RW combo drive allows you to turn home videos into DVDs, watch the latest Hollywood releases, burn and play audio CDs and backup data.

Multimedia enthusiasts in particular will appreciate the system's massive 16-inch SXGA TFT viewing screen (1280 by 1024 resolution) and integrated stereo speakers. Other desirable amenities include a Memory Stick media slot, three USB ports, a fast IEEE 1394 port for data transfers from peripherals such as digital camcorders, a 56K modem for low-speed Internet and email access, a 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet interface for high-speed connectivity, and an 86-key QWERTY keyboard with electro-static touchpad. The unit delivers 1.5 to 3.5 hours of battery life with one battery attached and 3.0 to 7.0 hours with an optional second battery installed in its multi-purpose bay.

The VAIO PCG-GRV680P is pre-loaded with a wide variety of software, including Microsoft Windows XP Professional Edition (unlike the otherwise similar VAIO PCG-GRV680 Notebook, which ships with Windows XP Home Edition), Microsoft Money 2003, Adobe Premiere LE, and a broad array of audio, video and photo utilities.
