By
April 15th, 2004


Summary

The Actius MM10 was designed for users who require maximum productivity in and out of the office. Never before has a 2.10-pound notebook provided so much power. Its 1GHz Crusoe Processor, 256MB RAM, huge hard drive, 2 USB 2.0 ports and integrated Wi-Fi wireless connectivity ensure that you have the performance you need, while its groundbreaking design makes it a pleasure to carry. The included connection cradle makes it easier than ever to share files and backup data on your office or home PC.The Actius MM10 owes its quiet, fanless design and ultraslim, solid chassis to the extremely thin magnesium and aluminum alloy processing, the small 1.8" hard disk drive, Sharp's original high-density technology and original cooling mechanism. Weighing just over 2 pounds and only 0.54" thick (at the thinnest point), the Actius MM10 features a reliable 1GHz Crusoe Processor, built-in wired and wireless LAN connectivity, a touch-typable keyboard and up to 9.0 hours of battery life.
