Freemont, Calif. – Twinhead Corp. has launched its Durabook D13RY and D14RY notebook computers.
Part of the company’s ruggedized notebook line, they feature Intel Core Duo and Core 2 Duo processors as well as optional TPM 1.2, a hardware-based security technology.
The D13RY and D14RY also include Intel Centrino Duo mobile technology and either Windows XP Professional or Home Edition.
The D13RY is a mobile multimedia center with 13.3-inch WXGA TFT LCD screen, 1.3 megapixel webcam, and four 1-watt stereo speakers.
The D14RY is built for the road warrior and includes a non-glare 14.1” XGA TFT LCD display.
Both come in magnesium-alloy cases that are 20 times stronger than ABS plastic. Offering a much higher survival rate after drops and bumps, Durabook cases have an anti-shock mounting design that protects the LCD screen and hard disk drive from damage and data loss, and a flexible HDD cable design which absorbs shock from drops. An exclusive optical disk tray lock prevents unintentional tray eject from drop and vibration.
To add to it’s durability, the DURABOOK’s spill-resistant design insulates the keyboard, touchpad and adjacent buttons, stopping spills from leaking into sensitive interior parts.
The optional TPM (Trusted Platform Module) 1.2, the hardware-based security technology offered in the D13RY and D14RY, is an international standard created by the non-profit Trusted Computing Group. The TPM technology provides the most secure environment for mobile data protection based on the security protection being built within the PC hardware itself.
Other options include 60/80/100 GB hard drives, Intel GMA950 generation integrated graphics engine, and optional Bluetooth 2.0 technology. Users can choose from a supplemental combo drive, DVD Dual, or Super-Multi DVD drive.
