Averatec may have just introduced an all-in-one desktop with a 22-inch display, but the company isn’t forgetting its notebook customers: the new N3400 ultraportable notebook offers most of the portability of the oh-so-popular netbooks with some of the power and flexibility of a higher-end notebook—at a price that shouldn’t frighten too many potential customers.
“As one of the thinnest and lightest notebooks on the market, the N3400 meets the demand of consumers who require the ultimate in portability and a little flash of style without breaking the bank,” said TriGem sales VP Henry Hewitt, in a statement. “This notebook is sure to stand out from the crowd with its low weight, small footprint, and affordable price point.”
The N3400 features a 13.4-inch 1,366 by 768-pixel display, an Intel Pentium Dual Core T3400 CPU running at 2.16 GHz, 3 GB of RAM (with support for 8 GB), and a 250 GB SATA hard drive. The display is driven by Intel GMA X4500HD graphics—to it’s not going to be a gaming monster—but the N3400 does sport Bluetooth and 802.11n Wi-Fi wireless networking, three USB 2.0 ports, a 1.3 megapixel Webcam, VGA video output, and a 4-in-1 media card reader. Folks looking for an optical drive can get by with an external USB Super Multi 8× dual layer burner—at least it’s not weighing you down if you know you won’t need it—and the entire package comes in at just 3.8 pounds and less than an inch thick, making it highly portable.
The N3400 packs Windows Vista Home Premium and is available now at a suggested price of $799.
