Engadget: Dell Introduces Ultraportable With New Cooling System
The Dell Vostro V130 comes with Intel Core i3 or i5 processors, 4 GB of memory and a 13.3-inch screen. It weighs under 4 lbs. and prices starts at $429.
“Back when we reviewed the Dell Vostro V13 we had a few complaints, including the fact that it lasted less than three hours on a charge and lacked an HDMI port. Well, Dell’s gone and taken care of at least one of those issues with its new Vostro V130. The original thin and light chassis has been kept in tact, which means there’s still the same old battery issues, but Dell’s freshened up the 13.3-inch magnesium alloy laptop with an HDMI port, extra USB socket, a SIM card slot, new Core i3 / i5 ULV processor options, and some new Intel “Hyperbaric Cooling” technology. We don’t know much about that new cooling stuff, but apparently it will help the .65-inch thick system stay cool and quiet. Oh, and did we mention it now comes in that bright red hue?! The small business machine still starts an impressive $429 and is available today.
