Luxsonor on the mother board.............................. techweb.com Take Sceptre Technologies Inc.'s latest offering, the S6800. The machine, touted as a desktop replacement, was recently examined by the CRN Test Center. The S6800 is powered by the latest version of Intel Corp.'s mobile 300MHz Pentium II processor. The particular version of the processor used in this review supports Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP), leading to incredible graphics performance, especially for a notebook computer. The S6800 features a combination DVD-ROM/floppy drive, eliminating the need to swap drives and reboot. The combo drive also reads all forms of CD-ROM. The system comes preloaded with Windows 98. The icing on the cake is a 15.1-inch TFT XGA LCD screen, providing nearly as much screen space as a 17-inch CRT. The LCD's native resolution is 1,024 x 768 and is driven by an ATI 3D Rage Pro AGP graphics accelerator with 4 Mbytes of video memory, upgradable to 8 Mbytes. A LuxSonor LS242 DVD decoder is built into the system, so there is no need to add a separate MPEG-2 decoder card in one of the Sceptre's PC Card slots.
