Get More Done Without The “Old Laptop” Lag

- 240GB SSD storage helps keep things feeling quick. Apps open faster and the system feels more responsive than older-style hard drives.
- 8GB RAM gives you breathing room for multitasking, so you’re not constantly closing things just to keep moving.
- The 13.3” screen keeps the footprint compact on a desk or kitchen table, while still giving you enough space to work comfortably.
- Built-in extras like a webcam and DVDRW are handy when you need them, without buying add-ons.
