SCALEO C from Fujitsu Siemens Computers redefines the 'entertainment PC'

The new device is the finest blend of a powerful, reliable PC and an easy-to-use multimedia device.

"With the increased blurring of lines between the home and the work space, the consumer is demanding versatile PCs that consolidate various applications into one space-saving device," explained Paul Gamboa, Manager Consumer Products, Fujitsu Siemens Computers. "With the launch of the SCALEO C - a one of its kind product, Fujitsu Siemens Computers has enhanced its Home Entertainment products portfolio. By consolidating the standard PC applications with radio, HiFi and much more, the SCALEO C provides an unparalleled return on investment for the end-user."

Designed like a classic HiFi system with an attractive silver finish, the SCALEO C has been equipped with advanced entertainment features. The extremely compact PC (151mm high x 202mm wide x 320mm deep) is an all-in-one entertainment device that can replace the stereo. In fact, to listen to the radio, CDs or MP3s, the user does not even need to boot the SCALEO C. The PC is complimented with a remote control, which is equipped with the software to control every application of the device.

With a main memory up to 1GB and a 200 GB hard drive, the SCALEO C is equipped to handle all memory intensive applications, such as archiving audio and video recordings on CDs and DVDs. An optional TV tuner card has been provided to enable connection to the television for flicker-free and brilliant colour visuals. A number of audio, video and computer interfaces are at hand to allow connection of headphones, video cameras, digital cameras, video recorders, digital audio/video receivers and stereo systems.

Connected to the MYRICA LCD TV, the SCALEO C can be used as a home entertainment hub, or, alternatively, as a fully-equipped multi-media notebook. With a number of configurations available to choose from, SCALEO C satisfies an expansive array of taste and budgets.
