Samsung laptop prepared for UK launch

Samsung laptop prepared for UK launchA new laptop produced by Samsung is being prepared for its imminent UK launch.

BT has confirmed that the company’s NC20 portable computer is now available to pre-order, with it set to be available in white later this month.

A black version of the laptop, which includes a 12.1-inch display, Windows XP Home Edition and a 1.3GHz Via Nano U225 CPU processor, will be launched towards the start of March.

The system, which is priced at just under £400, also includes Bluetooth connectivity, a 1.3-megapixel webcam, a 1GB hard drive and a six-cell battery.

Details about the NC20’s launch have come after a rival computer manufacturer confirmed that one of its models is set to get a touchscreen option.

The new display controls on the upgraded Panasonic Toughbook 52 can be accessed using a stylus, while the screen also includes anti-glare and anti-reflective features.

In addition, the model features expanded memory and improved security.
