The company announced today that its D900C PHANTOM-X Mobile Workstation will be available with Core 2 Quad processors. Quad-core offering will include the 1066MHz FSB Q6600 and Q6700 Core 2 Quad processors along with 1333 MHz FSB E6x50 Core 2 Duo processors. In addition, graphics options include the NVIDIA GeForce Go 7950 GTX, GeForce Go 8700 GT or NVIDIA Quadro FX1600M running in single-card or SLI mode. Eurocom, however, doesn't stop there. Up to 750GB of storage space is supported with 750GB with RAID 0/1/5 via a SATA-300 interface. Customers also have the choice of a multi-DVD burner or a Blu-ray drive to handle optical storage/HD playback needs."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/5527_D900T_r.jpg" /><br /><br />Smoking cool specs, but what I found entertaining was they way they tried to spin the 1 hour battery life into a positive.<br /><br /><i>"It's a workstation-caliber PC complete with Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) in a notebook form factor," said Eurocom president Mark Bialic. "It may be large, but this is one extremely fast notebook that replaces desktop based workstation with over 1 hour of built-in UPS battery."</i><br /><br />Really it is just a portable workstation, as it is not usable for very long without being plugged in.
