Looking for a high-end portable computer with all the trimmings, one that will zip through any type of productivity application or entertainment software? The Compaq Presario 1520US notebook PC is sure to satisfy your appetite for elegant, high-performance portable computing.

A 1.8 GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor will rocket through a wide range of productivity applications, games, DVDs, and digital music. A built-in combination DVD/CD-RW drive lets 1520US users view movies and listen to and create music CDs through the integrated JBL Pro Performance Audio with Bass Reflex speakers.

A 40 GB hard drive provides voluminous storage for data and music downloads, while 512 MB of memory--expandable to 1 GB--plus 512 KB of on-chip L2 cache run multiple applications smoothly. An ATI Radeon IGP integrated graphics card and 32 MB of shared video memory deliver high-resolution images of up to 1,024 x 768 on the 1520US’s integrated 15-inch TFT XGA display or up to 1,600 x 1,200 noninterlaced on an external monitor.

The 1.5-by-12.9-by-10.5-inch, 7-pound notebook includes an integrated 10/100Base-T Ethernet port and 56K V.92 PCI modem. Expansion slots include one Type I/II PC Card slot with support for a 32-bit CardBus. The 1520US also includes two USB 1.1 ports, a FireWire digital video port, a parallel SPP/ECP interface (DB25 connector), a port replicator connector, a PS2 mouse or keyboard port, an RJ-45 Ethernet jack and RJ-11 modem jack, an S-video TV-out port, and an external VGA monitor port.
