The netbook weighs in at 2.2 pounds, measures less than one-inch thick, and offers up to six hours of battery life with the extended battery model. The N1200 will be offered in different models to match a customer&#8217;s computing needs and budget requirements, with prices ranging from $329 to $379.<\/p>\n<p>Three models will be offered and feature various configurations based on either the Windows XP Home or Windows 7 Starter operating systems. Extended battery models will also be available to increase battery performance from three to six hours.<\/p>\n<p>To achieve this design, the engineering team at TriGem incorporated materials and components typically found on more expensive ultra-slim notebooks. Cutting-edge technologies such as ultra-slim LED LCDs along with super-slim 7mm hard drives are some of the key components which enable the N1200 Series netbook to be less than one-inch thick. Magnesium-alloy casing and the use of lithium polymer battery cells help to keep the weight down to 2.2 pounds, making it the lightest in its class.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;To build a leading-class netbook, you need to think about how it should be built,&#8221; said Bob Davidson, TriGem USA senior vice president. &#8220;The lines between low-cost netbooks and ultra-portable notebooks are becoming blurred and consumers are no longer satisfied with mere compact clamshell-shaped netbooks. They want all the premium styling and features found in ultra-portable notebooks but at much more affordable prices.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The new Averatec N1200 Series netbook features a 1.66GHz Intel Atom N450 processor and operating system options for either Microsoft Windows XP Home or Windows 7 Starter. For videoconferencing and video Web chat, the netbook includes a 1.3-megapixel webcam. Storage options include 160GB and 250GB hard drives and the N1200 comes standard with 1GB DDR2 memory which is expandable to 2GB of total system memory.<br \/>\nThe Averatec N1200 Series netbook is available for purchase this month at retail partners such as BestBuy.com, TigerDirect.com and OfficeMax.com.<\/p>\n<p>TriGem&#8217;s products are backed by a one-year limited warranty and one-year of U.S.-based technical support available Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Pacific Time.<\/p>\n<p>NOTE TO EDITORS: High-resolution 300dpi photos of the Averatec N1200 Series netbook are available for download at the following links:<\/p>\n<p>Specifications \u2013 N1200 Series<\/p>\n<p>MODEL NAME: N1231EA1E-1S (Silver) \/ N1231EA1E-1B (Bronze)<\/p>\n<p>Battery (hrs): Up to 3hrs<br \/>\nScreen Size: 10.1&#8243; Wide LED LCD (16:9) (1024 x 600)<br \/>\nProcessor: ATOM N450 (1.66GHz)<br \/>\nChipset: Intel NM10<br \/>\nMemory: 1GB DDR2<br \/>\nHard Drive: 160GB HDD<br \/>\nOptical: N\/A<br \/>\nWLAN: 802.11N<br \/>\nLAN: 10\/100 LAN<br \/>\nBluetooth: None<br \/>\nVideo Solution: Intel Integrated<br \/>\nWebcam: 1.3 megapixel<br \/>\nOperating System: Windows XP Home<br \/>\nAudio: High Def.
