MSI's 15.6-inch P600 gives a Core i5 to those 'business folks'

MSI may still be struggling for respect here in America, but one thing's for sure: it's got you covered on all bases. From netbooks to entertainment rigs to this here business machine, MSI's got a lappie for just about every possible type of user. The understated 15.6-incher sports a fancy new Core i5 processor, the company's own ECO Engine (for saving power when you're not taxing the system), a battery good for eight hours, biometric fingerprint reader for keeping those top secret company documents under wraps and a multitouch trackpad to boot. Since it's meant for business, you'll only get an integrated graphics set, but you will find up to 4GB of DDR3 memory, a 1,366 x 768 resolution panel, a 250/320/500GB hard drive, SD / SDHC / MMC card reader, HDMI / VGA outputs, a pair of USB 2.0 sockets, eSATA, audio in / out, 802.11b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1 and a 1.3 megapixel webcam. Per usual, MSI's not dishing details on pricing and availability, but we're sure it'll be ready for the taking here soon.

Engadget is doing you a favor by not working on IE.

what makes this a business laptop? matte screen? or having an integrated graphis? or is it the black color?

[glenskey Posted Mar 22nd 2010 1:53AM]

@strade
i've found that business laptops usually have large bezels..

@strade

I'm guessing the industrial design and integrated graphics perhaps?
The same spec with fancy casing and dedicated graphics card will be a gaming notebook (MSI GX).

[Atkins Posted Mar 22nd 2010 2:04AM]

@strade All of what you said plus the name.

[Game_Ender Posted Mar 22nd 2010 2:10AM]

1,366 x 768 on a 15 inch screen that is pitfull? My 5.5 year old Inspiron 600M has 14.1 inch screen with 1400 x 1050 screen.

[URPradhan Posted Mar 22nd 2010 2:43AM]

@Game_Ender
Exactly. On a 15.6" laptop 1366x768 is a crap resolution that to for work !!! Its a joke. Both Asus and MSI keep throwing good configuration laptops with tempting price but also with the same CRAP resolution, which is a DEAL BREAKER for me atleast.

ugly!

[rosebowl23 Posted Mar 22nd 2010 4:04AM]

this is exactly the laptop i need. GOD WONT SOMEONE PLEASE TELL US WHEN THESE Core-i5/7 ULV LAPTOPS ARE COMING OUT?

[Cyberdyne Systems Posted Mar 22nd 2010 6:23AM]

@rosebowl23
Look at HP's 2540p EliteBook. It features the new ULV i7 640LM. They're out.

MSI laptop power

[think before you react Posted Mar 22nd 2010 5:28AM]

Another laptop with an off center trackpad. WHY??

[Glodokboy Posted Mar 22nd 2010 7:58AM]

@think before you react

It's centered if you discount the numpad. All MSI's 15 inchers and up have numpad

business folks dont need the computing power
