For many small businesses, space — or lack thereof! — can become a major issue. With travel as much a part of your daily grind as your Starbucks card, you’ve been forced into the world of the wireless. But how can you find a laptop that will pack the same punch your behemoth desktop does? Many laptop users tell us of their computing woes from the road: less hard drive space, slower processors, tinier keyboards, and smaller screens. Let’s make a rule that 2006 will be the year you no longer force your business into a technical handicap just to be able to send out that crucial memo from the airport lobby.

In this special edition of Productivity Journal, we’ll offer a great way to free up some valuable desktop space and still pack that top performance punch your office needs.

All the best,

We like the S-7700N for its amazing creature comforts, its staggering power, and, of course, its mobility. Big and bold, the most distinguishable feature of the S-7700N is it’s huge! A super-sharp 17-inch display that can show 1,680x1,050 native resolution is sure to keep any graphics project looking sharp. Featuring a full keyboard and an additional 10-key pad under the hood, there’s plenty of room to play on this bad boy. With 1.80GHz, 2GHz and 2.10GHz Intel® Pentium® M processors available, the S-7700N can be ordered with either an 80GB or 100GB 5,400rpm drive or a screamer of a 60GB 7,200rpm device; there are no 4,200rpm drives available, and we're OK with that. While most systems offer a plethora of memory choices, happily, the S-7700N has but two: 1GB or 2GB of 533MHz memory chips.

Weighing in at 7.7 pounds, this laptop may be heavier than other options. But, if you're looking to replace that high-end space-hog desktop with a laptop that's focused more on performance than multimedia, the fast, sleek, and powerful Gateway S-7700N is a sure winner for your business needs in 2006.
