Mesh Edge Q900 Xtreme Laptop

Mesh Computers have just taken their first few steps into the laptop world. Yet they have managed to put their fingers in all the pies, making mobile computers ranging from 10” netbooks to 18” workhorses. They call this range – the Edge line of laptops. Mesh Edge Q900 Xtreme Laptop is their new 18.4” laptop which has been designed for multimedia and gaming.

Most multimedia laptops come with a Full HD screen. So does this one too. Apart from crisp and clear visuals, most games also require a powerful processor. This laptop has been equipped with the Intel Core 2 Quad Q9000 processor with a clock speed of 2GHz, for this purpose. Apart from the processor, the graphics processor also plays an important role in providing a good multimedia/gaming experience. The Nvidia GeForce with CUDA GTX280 graphics with 1GB dedicated memory, handle all motion pictures in this device.

A 4GB RAM has been built in. Ample storage space with a 320GB hard drive is offered as well. Adding extra flavour to the pudding is the Blu Ray drive built into this laptop. The operating system that this machine ships with is Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium. Stunning visuals must be accompanied by equally good sounds. Full duplex speakers with Intel High Definition audio and 3D effect are incorporated in this multimedia workstation.

An ideal gaming laptop must provide compatibility with a variety of other devices. For this purpose, the Q900 Xtreme has been packed with 4 USB ports, an HDMI output, a VGA connector, a headphone jack and a microphone jack. A multi-format card reader and an ExpressCard slot are also integrated into this laptop. A V .92 MDC fax/modem is as well built in. Even a 2 Megapixel camera is fitted in, for video chats.

WiFi and Ethernet connectivity are both supported for connecting to the internet. Wireless Bluetooth data exchange is possible too. The Mesh Edge Q900 Xtreme Multimedia Laptop offers a battery life of about 2 hours. The weight of this UK laptop is about 5.6kg which makes it more of a desktop replacement than a portable laptop. It carries a price tag of about £1999 currently.
