Neo Basic B4103 Intel Core i3 330M (2.13 GHz), supports Hyper-Threading 14.1" display screen @ 1366x768 pixels 2GB DDR3 RAM Integrated Intel HD 320GB HDD DVD+RW Supermulti Optical Drive 6-cell Li-Ion @ 4400mAh It's pretty basic really, but the highlight here is the Core i3 processor running at 2.13GHz with 2 cores and 4 threads.
