If you're a value-conscious entrepreneur who's in the market for a full-featured notebook computer, take a look at the Hitachi VisionBook Plus 5280 ($1,999).

The VisionBook Plus delivers high performance, offering a 233 MHz Pen-tium processor with MMX technology, 32MB RAM and a 3.2GB removable hard drive. It also contains several high-tech goodies, including a 56K fax/data modem, a 20X CD-ROM drive that's interchangeable with a 1.44MB floppy disk drive, and multimedia sound.

A high-quality 800 x 600 dpi display is another noteworthy feature of the VisionBook Plus 5280. Its 12.1-inch High Performance Addressing screen refreshes twice as fast as a regular dual-scan display, reduces shadowing and provides higher contrast ratios for easier viewing. As an added bonus, the standard NiMH battery or optional Li-Ion battery both have more than four hours of battery life.
