Reviews for the Intel Core 2 Duo T5500 processor

 

Short Review Acer Aspire 7720G Notebook

DTR Entry-level solution. The Acer Aspire 7720 series's case has a gemstone design, which is already well-known. It is equipped with a 17 inch WXGA+ display which provides a good desktop size for multimedia applications. The G in the name hints on a dedicated video card, whereas the reviewed notebook was equipped with a Geforce 8400M GS by nVIDIA. Combined with a Dual Core CPU the Aspire 7720, which belongs to the 17 inch notebook category, is a bundle especially interesting for starter.

Review Dell Inspiron 1525 Notebook

More than just Office. The Dell Insprion 1525 scores not only points in typical aspects important for office notebooks, but also regarding a number of multimedia features. Besides a good workmanship, an user-friendly keyboard and a clear design, it also offers, e.g., an up-to-date HMDI port. Inside a Dual Core processor by Intel and two GB RAM ensure sufficient performance.

Review BenQ Joybook S31 Notebook

Petit noir. Not only is the Joybook S31's look appealing. It also seems to be useful right from the very beginning. The matte black case should be free from any visible signs of wear. It is a small and light notebook, so, you can easily tell that the intended focus group are business travelers.

Review Asus A8JR Notebook

Messenger of the Gods. You feel like they already offered the same notebook? You are completely right. Still, the brand-new X2300 video card of ATI, the harbinger of the long expected new video card generation, induced us to look closer at the A8JR once more.
