Posted on: Monday, 25 July 2005, 09:00 CDT
NAMPA, Idaho, July 25 /PRNewswire/ -- MPC Computers today announced the TransPort(R) T3100 notebook computer, which offers the latest in mobile technology and performance enhancements. The TransPort T3100 features the new Intel 915PM chipset, which supports up to 2GB of high-speed 533MHz DDR2 memory and significantly increases system performance. This notebook also offers Serial ATA hard drives for higher data transfer rates, and integrated Bluetooth technology for personal wireless connectivity. PCI-Express video graphics with up to 128MB provide the T3100 notebook with enhanced graphics capabilities.
For added security, an integrated Smart Card Reader (Common Access Card) and biometric fingerprint scanner are also included on the TransPort T3100. The Smart Card is a standard for secure access in the government workplace, and the integrated Smart Card Reader, along with the additional ActivCard Gold CAC software, enables government users to access secure hardware and data.
When activated, the biometric fingerprint scanner requires the user to properly scan his or her fingerprint before being granted access to the system. This fingerprint-level security can also be applied to specific files or applications on the PC, in which select data files or folders are automatically encrypted to ensure that only authorized users will be able to access them. Fingerprint recognition also provides the benefit of replacing all the user's passwords in one simple scan of the finger, eliminating the common problem of forgotten passwords.
"The TransPort T3100 combines new technology with legacy support and security features to support government users," said Paul Petersen, MPC's vice president of product marketing and development. "This notebook is the sister product of the award-winning TransPort X3100 notebook, and offers the same outstanding compatibility and legacy support in a lightweight two-spindle design."
