Gateway NV5213u Laptop
Posted September 24th, 2009 by simon
This laptop is similar to the Gateway NV5814u but the lack of Intel inside makes it slightly cheaper at $529.99. It packs a 2.1 GHz AMD Athlon 64 X2 QL-64 dual core processor, 4 GB of RAM and a 320 GB hard drive. The visuals are catered for by the ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics card and it also has a 15.6 inch high definition Ultrabright LED backlit display. There are two built in stereo speakers, a webcam and same handy keyboard shortcuts including power save, back up and touch pad lock.
Connectivity is also good with support for Wi-Fi (802.11b, g or n), 4 USB ports and 1 HDMI port. You’ll also find a multi digital media card reader. The rechargeable battery is good for at least 3 hours and a power adapter is supplied. It comes pre-installed with Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1 and a 60 day trial of Norton Internet Security. You should be able to upgrade to Windows 7 easily, in fact if you buy through Gateway you should be eligible for a free upgrade until the end of January 2010.
