Portable Computer News

Sterling Computer Sales offers rugged portable computers with shock mounted drive cages and rubber impact corners on an all aluminum chassis design. Our portable computer systems are built and tested to work for many years and come with a standard one year warranty parts and labor.

After working in the portable computer or Lunchbox computer segment of the pc market we notice that the demand is shrinking for the units offering multiple hard drives. It appears that the new trend is to request units that are video capable both high resolution and sunlight readable. This has caused a shift in our custom unit preparation. Now processing power includes Video rendering power. Our portables pc can be equipped with two high end video cards and multiple monitors. The three screen unit must have 2 video cards to drive the 3 screen hardware. We normally rely on the NVIDIA high end cards for this purpose.

We have also noticed that there is little desire to adopt the newer operating systems from Microsoft. In fact we have just concluded building a system with the NT operating system. So adherence to legacy requirements is necessary in our portable computer business since valuable end user PCI cards are still being used and supported. Portable computers are still one of the alternatives if one wants to combine the new with the old.
