Featuring an 800MHz Intel Pentium III processor, a 15GB harddrive and 64MB RAM (upgradeable to 320MB), the Evo N150 offers thesame features as many of the high-end notebooks around, but forabout half the cost. And it's not clunky-looking like a lot ofthe budget notebooks. Its clean design supports 802.11bwireless-enabling products from Compaq, a full-sized keyboard andprogrammable Internet-connect keys as well as a respectable14.1-inch TFT XGA display-yet it still manages to keep its weightat 5.9 pounds. If you're not on a wireless LAN yet, you'llappreciate its 56Kbps V.90 modem with an integrated NIC. The Evoalso features a FastIrDA port for infrared capability.
