Advantage 4 Marine Computer

Pentium 4 800MHZ FSB

Hyperthreading Technology

Less than 6" wide and 3" tall

SeaSafe Marinization

4 Serial Ports 

Rugged Shock Mounted Hardrive

Extruded Aluminum Case

 

The Advantage 4 shares the case and many other features of the Advantage, adding state of the art Pentium 4 speed, Hyperthreading technology, and USB 2.0.

The Advantage 4 has a rugged hardrive, shock-mounted in it's 3.5" bay. Full chassis Sorbothane suspension and two forms of corrosion protection complete the SeaSafe marinization process.

 4 serial ports allow multiple NMEA 0183 instruments, like a GPS, Anemometer and Depth Sounder to be connected without the added expense of a multiplexer, and still have a serial port for your touch screen monitor. 

This is a fast computer with an AGP on-board video chip having 64MB of video ram for the very fast screen refreshes needed for seamless chart display. 

For convenient video and data transfer, a DVD/CDRW drive is standard, 

Beyond stamped sheet metal, the Advantage 4 features a very rugged, heavy gauge extruded aluminum case that adds durability and also helps cooling.

We see that recently other (marine computer?) manufacturers have started to carry a unit based on the same barebone case. It's all in premium component selection, marinization, and features.  Ours have shock mounted, high speed laptop hardrives, conformal coating, vapor corrosion inhibitors and sorbothane chassis suspension. How about 4 serial ports, dual channel DDR RAM, or Hyperthreading? That's what separates this marine computer from the home units. Buy a real marine computer you can depend on, ours are engineered for reliability, corrosion protection, and high temp operation.

 

The 865GV chipset offers high-bandwidth interfaces such as dual-channel DDR 400 main memory, 800 MHZ system bus, integrated graphics controller with Intel Extreme Graphics 2 Technology, Intel Communication Streaming Architecture featuring a Dedicated Network Bus (DNB) and Hi-Speed USB 2.0 connectivity to ensure the flexibility you expect.
