M230 is the latest laptop computer that meets and exceeds the standards set by the military (810F, 461E) and industry (IP54), but is priced less than many of the competitors lightweight portable computers. With Centrino™ Mobile Technology, M230 features a versatile Bay 1 and removable HDD bay design. M230’s Bay 1 can accommodate an optical drive, or a second battery.

The IP54 design means that M230 is designed to survive the extreme use and needs of today’s “on-the-go” road warriors in field service, utilities, construction, telecommunications, military, police, fire and emergency services (EMS), data collection in science, oil and gas exploration where wind-blown, heavy rain, three–foot drops off the back of a truck, and temperatures from –4°F to +130º F may be encountered.

Going beyond rugged, M230 is a powerful notebook computer. It features a large, bright 14.1” XGA or 15" TFT SXGA+ LCD screen with up to 128MB of shared RAM. For direct sunlight applications, an optional outdoor viewable display and A/R reflective coating is available. A touch screen option is also available to the on-the-go/in-vehicle users.

Behind the display is the latest Intel® Core™ Duo L2400 processor with Centrino™ Mobile Technology for true speed and wireless portability. It is enhanced with up to 2 GB of DDR SDRAM, a 667 MHz FSB, a selection of quick-swap hard disk drives (80GB or above) and optical drives (DVD, CD-ROM, and COMBO DVD/Floppy or CD/Floppy).

The main battery powers the M230 for up to 4 hours of full-out, pedal to metal use. The optional second battery adds two more hours, but the optional vehicle mount lets the unit recharge and function continuously.

The affordable M230 also offers customers field flexibility in the configuration. The swappable drives will allow police, fire officials, and utility workers to leave the computer in the vehicle but remove the drive at the end of the shift to finish their reports at their desks or checking the disk into evidence.
