Believe the hype. Select Y Series models have the latest Intel Core i7 processors along with RapidDrive technology, which boosts startup time on Windows 7 PCs and improves application performance. In other words, they are powerful enough to astound even the most jaded techies. The addition of HDMI ports, multiple USB slots and a 6-in-1 Multi-Card Reader doesn't hurt either.
Multimedia lovers step up. Y Series systems serve up a veritable feast for your senses — select models offer 3D technology, high-def video and graphics, optional Blu-ray Disc™ player and Dolby® surround sound with JBL® speakers. To top it off, you can use our convenient OneKey® theater button to control your entire multimedia environment.
We do design with a sense of purpose. We appeal to your sense of vanity with contemporary, embossed covers. We prize your comfort with our responsive keyboards. We help you swipe your way to programs and shortcuts with our unique touch-sensitive SlideNav bar. We texture our multitouch trackpad for smoother use and help turn your face into your password with VeriFace® software.

Beautiful, fast, fluid. Windows 8 has been reimagined to be all about you. Put what matters most right on your Start screen, and get instant access to your people, apps, and stuff, so you can spend less time searching and more time Doing.
The split screen application allows you to make the most of your screen's display space. For example, watch the game in one part and chat about it in another.
Select laptops feature a new technology that adjusts the screen's brightness based on the immediate environment and lighting conditions to optimize display quality, alleviate eye strain, and conserve battery power.
Under the federally-funded EPEAT program in the U.S., manufacturers declare their products' conformance to a comprehensive set of environmental criteria.
