Intel Centrino with vPro technology capable
Intel Centrino with vPro technology is a selectable feature that is available on units configured with an Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN or 4965AG. It provides advances in remote manageability,
security, energy efficient performance, and wireless connectivity. Intel Active Management Technology (AMT) offers built-in manageability and proactive security for networked notebook PCs, even when
they are powered off* or when the operating system is inoperable. It can help identify threats before they reach the operating system, isolate infected systems, and update PCs regardless of their power
state.
*Requires a Windows operating system, network hardware and software, connection with a power source, and a direct (non-VPN) corporate network connection which is either cable or wireless LAN.
NOTE: Some functionality of Intel Centrino Pro and vPro technology, such as Intel Active Management technology and Intel Virtualization technology, requires additional 3rd party software in order to run.
Availability of future "virtual appliances" applications for Centrino Pro and vPro technology is dependant on 3rd party software providers. Compatibility with future "virtual appliances" and Microsoft
Windows Vista operating system is yet to be determined.

DVI port in optional HP Docking Station (sold separately)
supports resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 for single-link DVI monitors and up to 2560 x 1600 for dual-link DVI monitors.

Memory
Standard
4096-MB 667-MHz DDR2 SDRAM; two SODIMM slots supporting dual channel memory
Maximum
Upgradeable to 8-GB with 4096-MB SODIMM in slots 1 and 2
Dual-channel
Maximized dual-channel performance requires SODIMMs of the same size and speed in both memory slots.
NOTE: Due to the non-industry standard nature of some third-party memory modules, we recommend HP branded memory to ensure compatibility. If you mix memory speeds, the system will perform at the
lower memory speed. Full availability of 8 GB of memory requires Windows Vista Business 64-bit or Linux. With Windows 32-bit operating systems, the amount of usable memory is dependent upon your
configuration, so that above 3 GB all memory may not be available due to system resource requirements.
Communications
Integrated Intel Gigabit Network Connection (10/100/1000 NIC)*
56K V.92 modem**
* The term "10/100/1000" or "Gigabit" Ethernet indicates compliance with IEEE standard 802.3ab for Gigabit Ethernet, and does not connote actual operating speed of 1 Gb/s. For high-speed
transmission, connection to a Gigabit Ethernet server and network infrastructure is required.
** Designed for downloads from 56K modem compliant sources. Maximum achievable download transmission rates currently do not reach 56 KB/s, and will vary with line conditions. Modem
availability is subject to country regulatory approval.

HP 3D DriveGuard
The hard drive is mounted directly to the notebook frame, reducing the transmission of shock away from the hard drive. Uses three-axis digital motion
detection with intelligent sensitivity to help protect the hard drive during normal use from shock and vibration. The digital accelerometer temporarily
halts all data transfer and parks the hard drive when abrupt motion is detected.
