Fujitsu Siemens rolls out notebook with external graphics card addon

With up to 470% increased graphics performance the AMILO Notebook Sa 3650 is the perfect partner for anyone who needs high graphics performance and yet does not lose out on mobility. This is achieved with one of the world's first external graphics solutions from Fujitsu Siemens Computers. The IT infrastructure provider offers with the AMILO GraphicBooster and the AMILO Notebook Sa 3650 a power duo leaving nothing to be desired: small, smart, powerful and stylish! With dimensions of just 18 x 13 x 3.35 cm and weighing only 0.5 kilos the graphics sensation owes its performance to the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3870 graphics card with a 512 MB dedicated graphics memory. 3D games, HD video and HD image processing are child's play for the AMILO Notebook Sa 3650. It is also possible to connect up to three monitors. The GraphicBooster has both a DVI-I and a HDMI and the AMILO Notebook Sa 3650 has a DVI-I connection. Wireless keyboard and mouse can be used with the two USB 2.0 ports in the small power package. The AMILO Sa 3650 and the AMILO GraphicBooster will be available at specialist retailers from December 2008.

However, the AMILO Notebook Sa 3650 stands out even without its partner. In addition to state-of-the-art AMD processor technology and a main memory of up to 4 GB, this small powerhouse also offers integrated draft-n WLAN, integrated Bluetooth 2.0 and, thanks to the ATI Radeon HD 3200 on-board graphics, a battery life of up to 4.5 hours. Supplemented by the 13.3-inch form factor and weighing only 2.4 kilos the AMILO Notebook Sa 3650 lets you rediscover mobility. Features, such as the SATA SuperMulti-Format DVD writer with Double Layer support, the spill-proof keyboard as well as numerous interfaces, e.g. DVI-I, eSATA, USB 2.0, and a 15-in-1 card reader, make the AMILO Notebook Sa 3650 a "must" for everyone who wants to see successful design combined with state-of-the-art technology. The handy featherweight and its partner, the AMILO GraphicBooster, are launched onto the market in the new design of Fujitsu Siemens Computers.

Whether you are a gamer on your way to a LAN party or a design student needing a notebook for university but at home full graphic performance: Weighing just under 3 kilos all in all, scarcely bigger than a handbag yet with the full graphics performance of a conventional high-end PC, this dynamic duo becomes the ideal travelling companion – not only for students or gamers but for everyone who uses a notebook but not want to despite with the performance of a desktop PC.
