CITY OF INDUSTRY, CA – August 4, 2010 – MSI Computer Corp., a leading manufacturer
of computer hardware products and solutions, today announced the North American
availability of its thin and light P600 and S6000 notebooks, designed for people
who need powerful multimedia, entertainment and business capabilities.
Weighing in at 5.3 lbs., the P600 is thinner than most notebooks designed for business
use, plus it includes a built in ultra-slim optical drive and an 8-cell battery
for extended performance, to deliver a complete package without compromise. At 5.0
lbs., the S6000 shaves weighs with a four cell battery, while still serving up all
the same specs and the same sleek form factor.
MSI displays its technical prowess by combining its exclusive ECO Engine power saving
technology with Intel®’s Core i5 processors on the Calpella platform, and Intel
Turbo Boost technology. As a result, the P600 and S6000 notebooks offer 30 percent
improved performance, and for the P600, battery life clocks in at up to eight hours,
which is 15 percent longer than average for standard notebooks in its class.
Specific P600/S6000 include:
|
|
•
|
MSI’s own EasyFace software that authenticates users by recognizing unique facial
features to help keep sensitive data safe while on the go.
|
|
•
|
A multi-touch touchpad, so that users can rotate objects and zoom in and out with
the touch of their fingers.
|
|
•
|
A suite of advanced audio technologies for the PC including SRS Premium Sound to
bring out subtle nuances and rich sounds buried in the music and video content.
|
|
•
|
A wide-angle, theater-class 16:9 ratio HD LED display to fully enjoy powerful multimedia
and entertainment at your fingertips.
|
|
•
|
MSI’s own Color Film Print technology, which creates an outer coating that changes
colors with shifts in lighting and protects the surface from scratching and day-to-day
wear.

“We see the P600 and S6000 notebooks as a perfect option for people across the United
States and Canada who use their notebooks for both work and play. They address the
need for a high quality product that combines business and pleasure, by being thin
and powerful, with added benefits such as the built-in optical drive,” said Andy
Tung, vice president of sales for MSI North America. “By providing a lightweight
notebook that people can take anywhere, MSI strives to exceed busy people’s demands
for portability and powerful computing.”
The P600 will be available online, at sites including Newegg, Amazon, J&R, and the S6000 will be available in stores,
including Office Depot, Micro Center, Tigerdirect and La Curacao. For more information,
