The 5101 is based on the AMD Turion 64 MK-36 processor series. The AMD budget mobile offering, which runs at 2.0 GHz, is a single core processor and takes only 31 TDP (total power consumption in terms of wattage). This is a great processor with low power consumption, and being a 64-bit chip it will allow a user to easily upgrade to a 64-bit OS. While 64-bit OS have yet to become mainstream, we expect that with the launch of Vista they will completely replace the 32-bit OS prevalent today.In other system specifications, the 5101ANWLMi comes with a default 512 MB of RAM,a 60 GB HDD, a 15-inch LCD with a native resolution of 1280x800, an 8x dual-layer DVD-RAM drive, a Radeon 1100 Graphics chipset which takes 256 MB of system ram for video operations and has a Broadcom Wi-Fi chip that has support for 802.11B/G. Sound is handled by a Realtek HDA sound-chip which offers excellent audio playback.
