Expressive Enjoyment
Superior home entertainment begins with a 15.4˝ wide Clear Bright
˝
High Colour LCD that delivers exceptional brightness while surpassing
the colour reproduction capabilities of other notebook LCDs. And with
a powerful NVIDIA
®
GeForce
®
Go 7400 graphics processing unit
featuring NVIDIA
®
TurboCache™* technology, viewing pleasure is taken
even higher. Featuring VAIO Zone, the VAIO FE17NP provides smooth,
simple access to broad entertainment. And whenever the whole family
wants to watch together, the S-Video Out connector makes it easy to
output display to a TV anytime. Because the VAIO FE17NP comes with
a built-in camera MOTION EYE and a built-in microphone, you can
video chat as soon as you switch on. And as the VAIO FE17NP offers
Bluetooth
®
capability too, you can enjoy smooth voice communication
with Bluetooth
®
-compatible headsets. Whatever you choose to do, the
VAIO FE17NP makes a clear difference.
VGN-FE17NP
Step Ahead Performance
The VAIO FE17NP packs advanced performance into amazingly slim
dimensions. Featuring a leading edge Intel
®
Core™ Duo Processor T2400
(1.83GHz), it keeps operation running smooth even with multiple applications
on the go, while an Intel
®
PRO/Wireless 3945BG Network Connection extends
family fun and freedom. Ample 512MB DDR2 SDRAM (533MHz) main memory
pushes potential further, and wide ranging compatibility starts with slots for
both Memory Stick Duo and ExpressCard™/34 — with a supplied adapter that
adds access to a variety of memory media. There’s even an optional docking
station (VGP-PRFE1) that not only makes it easy to connect to and disconnect
from a set of peripherals in one action but also enables insertion of a HDD
(VGP-HDBX08A) to increase storage capacity. As impressively capable as it is
attractive, the VAIO FE17NP adds power to everyday life.
