District Administration - August 2007 - (Page 37)

HP recommends Windows Vista® Business. A student’s world gets more engaging when a teacher’s classroom gets more interactive. That’s why we’ve created the HP Digital Learning Environment, an innovative approach to classroom interaction that starts with HP notebook computers. They serve as a hub for personalized learning, allowing students to go online, collaborate, share work with teachers and receive individualized, real-time feedback that leads to real-time inspiration. And while interactive technology is just one step toward creating a new kind of classroom, it’s a big one for students and teachers alike.

Certain Windows Vista product features require advanced or additional hardware. See http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/getready/hardwarereqs.mspx and http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/getready/capable.mspx for details. Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor can help you determine which features of Windows Vista will run on your computer. To download the tool, visit www.windowsvista.com/upgradeadvisor. 2. Intel’s numbering is not a measurement of higher performance. 3. Dual Core is a new technology designed to improve performance of certain software products. Not all customers or software applications will necessarily beneﬁt from use of this technology. 64-bit computing on Intel architecture requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device drivers and applications enabled for Intel® 64 architecture. Processors will not operate (including 32-bit operation) without an Intel 64 architecture-enabled BIOS. Performance will vary depending on your hardware and software conﬁgurations. See www.intel.com/info/em64t for more information. 4. Some functionality of Intel Centrino Pro, such as Intel Active management technology and Intel Virtualization technology, requires additional 3rd party software in order to run. Availability of future “virtual appliances” applications for Centrino Pro technology is dependent on 3rd party software providers. Compatibility of this generation of Centrino Pro technology-based hardware with future “virtual appliances” and Microsoft Windows Vista operating system is yet to be determined.
