  • Sparkling white case with intense colour highlights
  • Ideal choice for design-conscious tech-chic notebook users
  • 12-inch, 15.4-inch and 17-inch format
  • No compromise on technology or functionality.

Packard Bell, one of the leading consumer electronics brands in Europe, has unveiled an exclusive sparkling white colour scheme for its notebooks. Three existing Packard Bell notebooks – the EasyNote BG, MB and SB -- will be available in sparkling white with intense colour highlights.

The new look was developed by Packard Bell’s Paris-based design studio to appeal to design-conscious, tech-chic notebook users. Based in the world’s fashion capital and under the leadership of design manager Adrien Camp. “Our research showed that white continues to be the colour of choice for ‘tech-chic’ buyers, but that they wanted to add a dash of personality using intense colour highlights. We’re seeing similar colour combinations on fashion show runways around the world,” says Adrien Camp. “We picked lime green, sunny orange and rich chocolate as the highlights – three of this season’s hottest colours. And the white is no ordinary white: its sparkle gives it a striking visual texture.”

Packard Bell’s new notebooks clearly demonstrate the company’s belief that style and design are just as important as performance and features when choosing a notebook. Packard Bell’s focus on design and innovation were rewarded recently when the company won two important prizes: the prestigious French Janus design award for 2007 and the European Plus X award for “most innovative brand” in the IT category.

The highlights are lime green for the 12-inch Easy Note BG series, sunny orange for the 15.4” MB series and rich chocolate for the 17-inch SB series. The three limited edition notebooks offer the same uncompromising set of features as their glossy black counterparts. All three are powered by Intel® Core™ 2 Duo processors and come with built-in Wi-Fi and webcams. The EasyNote MB and SB series are available with Blu-Ray optical drives, high end graphics (up to NVIDIA GeForce 8600 M GT with 512MB dedicated) for visually intensive applications like gaming, and the latest interfaces, including DVI, HDMI and eSATA.

The Packard Bell Limited Edition EasyNote White notebooks will be available at PC World stores nationwide from November. Prices start from £699. For more information on these exciting new offerings please see our product page.
