Dell Latitude Z600: World’s Thinnest and Lightest 16 Inch Laptop, Beanstalk Computing can save you $500 off the cost of a system

Dell Latitude Z: Form. Function. Brains. Beauty.

Its another beautiful day here in San Diego and I am writing this blog post on my new laptop starring out at the waves on Mission Beach.  The Dell Latitude Z600 is a business grade laptop that’s only a half inch thick, 4.5 pounds, and houses a beautiful 1600*900 16 inch screen.  Call Beanstalk Computing today to find out how we can save you over $500 off the cost of this system (Normally starting around two grand)

Z600 Feature In Depth

I chose this system because I carry my laptop on my back every day and I wanted to something very light and easy to carry but also have a large screen.  Every other thin and light I have seen only has a 13 inch or smaller screen, and so I came to the conclusion of getting one of these systems.  Dell has put a lot of effort into keeping the system thin by designing all the components to fit into a super thin shell, that means things like a solid state drive and memory are directly soldered to the motherboard similar to the new Macbook Air; which removes the need for extra housing inside the system.

Being a business laptop, a lot of security features are available.  The system has a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) which is a secure cryptoprocessor.  It adds a harware layer of security to your computer.  For example, I have it setup so that when the computer first boots up, even before windows starts, I have it ask me to swipe my finger to unlock the system.

Another neat trick is what Dell calls FaceAware.  This uses the built in webcam to automatically lock the computer when you step away from the system.

Another interesting feature of this laptop is what Dell calls Latitude On.  They are trying to merge the gap betweeen a smartphone and your laptop.  It is a separate Linux OS on your system that runs on its own dedicated hardware.  Because it doesn’t have to rely on your main CPU, hard drive and everything else, it can last over 40 hours on a single charge with the 8 cell battery!

    Hey – nice blog, just looking around some blogs, seems a pretty nice platform you are using. I’m currently using WordPress for a few of my sites but looking to change one of them over to a platform similar to yours as a trial run. Anything in particular you would recommend about it?

    Thank you for your comments and praise on our blog!

  12. Jason 6th January 2011 10:44 am

    Thank you for your comment on our Post. The “Latitude On” doesn’t actually turn out to be as useful as I originally thought. Mainly because the system boots into Windows 7 so quickly anyway with the SSD drive. Secondarily, the system is only apparently compatible with Exchange 2003, but we use Exchange 2010 so I cant take advantage of the email and calendar sync!

    I feel like you could probably teach a class on how to make a great blog. This is fantastic! I have to say, what really got me was your design. You certainly know how to make your blog more than just a rant about an issue. Youve made it possible for people to connect. Good for you, because not that many people know what theyre doing.
