Samsung M55 w/Blu-Ray
Joining the fray of high-end, HD-ready laptops is Samsung, whose new M55 combines a Blu-Ray drive, a 2GHz Core 2 Duo, and a 17-inch screen capable of full 1080p resolution. This makes the computer ideal for movie playback away from the TV. The computer is well-equipped in other regards as well, having 2GB of RAM, and a GeForce Go 7600 videocard with 256MB of VRAM. Rounding out the specifications are a 120GB SATA drive, and numerous connection options, such as Bluetooth 2.0 and 802.11a/b/g. The computer has only been announced for Korea so far, but like other Samsung products it may well come to North America. [via Akihabara News]
