Processor Brand AMD

Processor AMD A4-Series (Also known as the CPU). The part of the computer that interprets and executes instructions. Think of it as the brain of the computer.

Processor Speed 1.0GHz How fast a computer processor carries out instructions. In general, faster is better, but processor speeds across brands may not be equivalent (i.e., a 3.0GHz AMD processor may not be the same speed as a 3.0GHz Intel processor).

Battery Type 2-cell Lithium Ion (Li-Ion)

Display Type HD widescreen LED touchscreen with IPS Technology used to display text and images on the screen. Computer monitors, notebook computers, mobile DVD players and other devices typically use LCD (flat-panel liquid crystal displays) screens.

Screen Size (Measured Diagonally) 13.3" Size of the screen, in inches, measured diagonally from corner to corner.

Cache Memory 2MB on die Level 2 A small segment of memory that stores frequently used information for fast access by the processor, improving response time.

System Memory (RAM) 4GB The memory a computer uses to run its operating system, applications and active data files. Greater amounts of RAM improve speed and enable more applications to run at once.

System Memory (RAM) Expandable To Nonexpandable Maximum amount of memory a computer can support (as opposed to the amount that comes preinstalled).

Type of Memory (RAM) DDR3L

Hard Drive Type SATA (5400 rpm) Hard drives are classified based on the interface they use to connect to a computer. Common interfaces for internal hard drives include EIDE, PATA (also known as, ATA and IDE), SATA and SCSI. Common interfaces for external hard drives include USB 2.0, FireWire and eSATA.

Computer Hard Drive Size 500GB Capacity for storing programs, photos, video, music and other electronic information. Hard drive capacities range from a few gigabytes to several hundred.

Optical Drive Not included

Direct-Disc Labeling No

Graphics AMD Radeon HD 8180 Type of graphics (video) adapter (usually built into the motherboard), identified by manufacturer and model.

TV Tuner No Enables reception of TV programs.

MPEG No A group of digital video formats created by the Motion Picture Experts Group (MPEG) to compress high-quality video into file sizes small enough to be transmitted over the Internet.

Built-in Webcam Yes

Modem None Device that allows a computer to send and receive information over telephone or cable lines.

Networking None Ability to connect to other devices on a network using Ethernet, Wi-Fi (wireless; 802.11), Bluetooth, etc.

Wireless Networking Wireless-B+G+N

Bluetooth-Enabled Yes

S-Video Outputs None Connections that deliver separate color and black-and-white video signals through a single cable. S-video connections provide better picture quality than RF and composite video connections but not as good as component video, DVI and HDMI connections.

Audio DTS Studio Sound

Speakers Internal

PCMCIA Slots None Slots in notebook computers that accept credit-card-size upgrade cards. Type I is used mostly for memory, Type II for modem, fax and network cards, and Type III for hard drives.

IEEE 1394 FireWire Ports None (Also known as FireWire, Apple Computer's trademarked name for IEEE 1394.) High-speed connection that supports data transfer rates of up to 400 Mbps or 800 Mbps (depending on port version).

Parallel Ports None Older and relatively slower interface most commonly used to connect a PC to a printer.

Game Ports None Jacks for connecting video game controllers.

Laptop Weight Ultraportable (5.5 lbs. or less)

Battery Life Up to 6 hours and 41 minutes as a laptop, up to 3 hours and 46 minutes as a tablet

Pointing Device Click pad with Windows 8 gesture control

Touchscreen Yes

Operating System Platform Windows

Operating System Windows 8 The master software that controls hardware functions and provides a platform on top of which any software applications will run. Commonly used systems include Microsoft Windows, Mac OS and Chrome OS for computers; Android, Apple iOS, BlackBerry and Windows Phone for cell phones; and Android, Apple iOS and Windows for tablets.

Operating System Bit Version 64-bit The terms "32-bit" and "64-bit" refer to the way a computer's processor (CPU) handles information. A 64-bit operating system handles large amounts of system memory (RAM) more effectively than a 32-bit system.

Most software programs designed for a 32-bit operating system will work on the 64-bit version, with the exception of many antivirus programs. However, if a program is designed for a 64-bit operating system, it is not backwards-compatible with a 32-bit version.

Device drivers designed for a 32-bit system will not work on computers running a 64-bit operating system. Similarly, drivers designed for a 64-bit system will not work with a 32-bit version.
