ViewSonic, a familiar brand in the computer industry and also known as one of the global providers of computer displays, peripherals and other digital solutions, just jumped right into the no-mercy arena of the mobile computing market. ViewSonic’s entry is the new 13.3 inches VNB131 ViewBook Pro Ultra Low Voltage laptop, a considerably â€œfresh meatâ€ on the market that’s out for blood to prove itself at par with well established laptop brands. And like the old gladiatorial Roman days, you can’t help but root for the underdog especially when it got the backbone and the fangs to bear.

At a glance, the VNB131 ViewBook Pro is astonishingly slim at only about an inch thick and is encased in stylish aluminum armor with subtle curves and accents. Inside the VNB131 ViewBook Pro ULV notebook is the latest ULV SU7300 Intel Core 2 Duo processor running a Windows 7 Home Premium operating system, a 320GB hard drive, and 2GB worth of RAM. It also features a convenient removable DVD drive that can be swapped with an additional 3 cell battery that adds four hours of battery life to the already 8-hour capable 6 cell internal battery. If you do the math, that’s total of 12 hours battery life – longer than most interstate of intercontinental business trip.
