Sony VAIO PCG-V505ECP10 Laptop (:1.4 GHz Pentium M :(Centrino), 512 MB RAM, 80 GB Hard Drive, DVD/CD-RW Combo Drive) for Sale

Stylish and utterly professional, the Sony Vaio PCG-V505EC is a lightweight, easily portable notebook PC–only 4.39 pounds–that’s geared for business and mobility. Thanks to the Intel Centrino processor (1.4 MHz) and its robust 4400 MaH battery, you’ll keep you productive even on long flights. It features Windows XP Professional, 54g wireless connectivity, a whopping 80 GB hard drive, 512 MB of installed RAM, a DVD-ROM/CD-RW combo drive, and 32 MB ATI Mobility Radeon 9200 video/graphics card.

The Basics

• Hard Drive: The spacious 80 GB hard drive offers more than enough storage for both your work and home files as well as a multimedia library.
• Processor: The 1.4 Ghz Pentium M processor is considered at the middle of speed range compared with other Centrino notebooks (with current speed topping out at 1.7 GHz). Because of its design, the Intel Pentium M gets more done per clock tick than a Mobile Intel Pentium 4, thus providing the discrepency in GHz measurement (i.e., 1.7 versus 3.2). The Pentium M processor is designed specifically for low-power mobile usage, and it features the latest in power-saving technologies–ensuring you push your battery and productivity to the max. It has a front-side bus (FSB) of 400 MHz and a 1 MB L2 cache.
• Memory: The 512 MB of built-in memory (DDR SDRAM) is a good start for power users. It has two memory slots in total, with a maximum memory expansion up to 2 GB (2 x 1024 MB).
• CD/DVD Drive: It comes equipped with a combo DVD/CD-RW drive, which enables you to play DVD-ROM discs and DVD movies as well as burn data and record music to CD discs. The CD-RW drive has 24x write, 10x rewrite, and 24x read speeds. The DVD-ROM has an 8x playback speed.
• Keyboard & Mouse: This notebook has a standard 85-key keyboard and electro-static two-button touchpad.

Sound and Graphics
The installed ATI Mobility Radeon 9200 video/graphics card is a relatively strong 3-D graphics renderer, and it has 32 MB of shared video memory. The 12.1-inch XGA TFT active matrix LCD has a native 1024 x 768 pixel display. It also has an sound card that’s integrated into the main board, and offers built-in stereo speakers.

Connectivity and Expansion Slots
This PCG-V505EC model has an integrated 802.11g wireless LAN (which is compatible with the more widespread 802.11b and offers faster data transmission rates). You get a decent–but not overpowering–offering of connectivity options, including both high-speed USB 2.0 and FireWire:

• 2 USB 2.0 ports for connecting a wide range of peripherals–from digital cameras to MP3 players
• 1 FireWire (also known as IEEE 1394 or i.Link) ports for connecting digital video camcorders and other peripherals
• 1 RGB monitor port
• 1 PCMCIA (or PC Card) slot (Type I/II)
• 1 headphone jack and 1 microphone jack
• 1 Memory Stick slot (Memory Stick Pro compatible)

It also has an integrated 56K modem (V.92) and an RJ-45 LAN network port (for a 10/100 Ethernet connection to networks and DSL/cable modems).

Preloaded System and Software
This PCG-V505EC comes with the Windows XP Professional operating system (which adds Microsoft’s IIS Web server, back-up and recovery utilities, Remote Desktop, and other enhanced business features), and it features Microsoft Works (for working with word processing and spreadsheet documents). It also is loaded with a bevy of Sony multimedia software: PictureGear Studio (digital photo) and DVgate Plus (digital video). Other preloaded software includes Microsoft Money and Encarta, InterVideo WinDVD, and Norton Internet Security Center (with 90-day subscription).

Dimensions and Weight
Measuring 1.4 x 10.9 x 9.5 inches (H x W x D) and weighing just 4.4 pounds, the PCG-V505DC is easily portable.

Power
The included rechargeable lithium-ion 4400 MaH battery offers battery life range of up to 6 hours (depending on usage).

What’s in the Box
This package contains the Sony Vaio PCG-V505EC notebook PC (model PCGV505ECP10), rechargeable lithium-ion battery, AC adapter, and operating instructions. It’s backed by a 1-year warranty for parts and labor, and 90 days of phone support.

Product Details

The VAIO V505EC notebook is designed to pack an impressive amount of performance into a sleek, stylish package. With optional Intel Centrino Mobile technology available, this notebook is designed with mobility in mind.
