Neo Computers, owned by Filipino firm Glee Electronics, Inc., is gearing-up for the widely anticipated next-generation operating system (OS) from Microsoft, the new Windows Vista OS, with the launching of three of their latest Vista-capable notebook models powered by Intel Core 2 duo Technology.
Scheduled for release later this year, Windows Vista promises to bring clarity to the customer's world by enabling them to easily accomplish daily tasks, instantly find what they want, enjoy the latest in entertainment, enjoy the safety of their personal information, stay connected at home or on the go, and help ensure that PCs are up to date, more secure and are running smoothly.
"We are very optimistic about these new Vista capable product offerings, not only because of the things it could offer to our business, but mostly because of the benefits that these new notebooks could give to our customers," said Jason Cheng, President and CEO, Glee Electronics, Inc.
Windows Vista promises to deliver unique user experiences in finding, using, and sharing information while ensuring the utmost security and reliability. The minimum requirements of a Vista capable PC include having at least a 512 MB memory, a modern processor and a graphics processor that is DirectX 9 capable.
Chay Saputil, Product Manager for Windows, Microsoft Philippines enthused, "We are excited about Neo's new offerings and desire to further enhance technology use in our consumers. We widely support the endeavors of our Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) such as Neo, and we are truly happy that they are launching these new products that will revolutionize the way people use their computers at home or on the go."
All the new models are pre-installed with Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition (MCE), an all-in-one PC and home entertainment center that allows users to enjoy and manage their digital information. With MCE, users can do everything that can be done in a Windows XP PC and more. It allows faster Web browsing, PC gaming, e-mailing, instant messaging, music playing, recording of favorite TV shows, multiple channel viewing and others.
