Clevo D900C Notebook
Leaked details surfaced today about Clevo's latest desktop replacement notebook, the D900C. The notebook should be the world's fastest notebook upon its release, early specs say: the 2-inch thick body provides room for desktop Core 2 Duo chips, letting the system run even the 2.93GHz Core 2 Extreme processor. Dual 512MB GeForce Go 7950 GTX graphics chips in SLI will also offer desktop-class graphics.
Storage will be even more elaborate, Clevo says. Three hard drive slots permit both extra space and even a RAID 5 backup array. The system will also have the option of dual optical drives. A 1.3-megapixel webcam and a TV tuner are also part of the system. Clevo itself is unlikely to sell the system in North America, but is likely to resell the system through Alienware, Sager, Voodoo PC, and other US brands. Pricing is likely to hover at the $2,700 mark. [via NotebookReview]
