. **Windows Vista Business disk also included for future upgrade if desired. To qualify for this downgrade
an end user must be a business (including governmental or educational institutions) and is expected to order annually at least 25 customer systems with the same custom image. 1. Dual
core is a new technology designed to improve performance of multithreaded software products and hardware-aware multitasking operating systems and may require appropriate
operating system software for full benefit. Not all customers or software applications will necessarily benefit from use of this technology. 2. 64-bit computing on Intel architecture requires a
computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device drivers and applications enabled for Intel® 64architecture. Processors will not operate (including 32-bit
operation) without an Intel 64 architecture-enabled BIOS. Performance will vary depending on your hardware and software configurations. See www.intel.com/info/em64t for more
information. 3. For hard drives, GB = 1 billion bytes. Actual formatted capacity is less. Up to 12 GB of system disk is reserved for system recovery software. 4. Actual speeds may vary.
Don’t copy copyright-protected materials. Double layer discs can store more data than single layer discs; discs burned with this drive may not be compatible with many existing single-
layer DVD drives and players. LightScribe creates a monochrome image. LightScribe media required and sold separately. Note that DVD-RAM cannot read or write to 2.6GB Single
Sided/5.2 GB Double Sided – Version 1.0 media.
