MaxVision Redefines Portable NLE Computer With Triple 19-Inch Folding LCD
Madison AL - Apr 01, 2004 MaxVision, manufacturer of the most powerful and rugged portable computers on the planet, today announced the industry's first triple-LCD portable family of computers designed for maximum performance and portability in applications such as SD and HD video. The new family of MaxPac X Class computers set a new level of performance features and ruggedness never before seen in a portable workstation. Three independently driven 19-inch folding displays are combined with dual Xeon processors and 7 hard drives (up to 2 Terabytes of storage), in a ruggedized, transportable form factor that meets every computing need of the video professional. "We designed the MaxPac X Class leaving absolutely nothing out and with the goal of meeting every expectation of the most demanding video professional, whether it's live video switching, video forensics or HD capture and NLE." Stated Bruce Imsand, founder and CEO of MaxVision. "With 6 striped SCSI hard drives on two separate channels and a separate system drive, the MaxPac can meet the 200 MB/Sec bandwidth requirements of uncompressed HD. There are no compromises in the X Class -- dual Xeon, PCI-X slots, and triple 19" LCD monitors driven by the Matrox Parhelia. "There are extras too, like projector ports on each of the three monitors and selectable S-Video inputs on each of the three monitors for playback of external sources and an integrated dual media DVD burner. It doesn't stop there. "We've integrated Bluetooth and Gigabit Ethernet and even an optional UPS to protect against power failures. It fits, it's tough, it operates cool and quiet and is ergonomically designed for continuous use. This is the only computer the video professional will ever need -- period!" "NewTek has been working with MaxVision for the past two years providing input on the design of a portable studio that sets a new standard," said Jim Plant, CEO and president of NewTek, Inc. "MaxVision has really done it. This is an incredible VT[3] portable studio workstation. "The X Class will keep pace with advancing technologies by allowing for upgrades of the motherboards, processors, memory, disks, open graphics -- in many cases, users can perform upgrades on their own. For extended storage, the MaxPac can interface with MaxVision's TeraPac, which will accommodate an additional 2 Terabytes of SCSI storage using eight 300GByte SCSI hard drives. The MaxPac X Class is available immediately and ranges in price from $11K for a single display model to $28K for a loaded system with multiple displays, dual processors, and multiple drives. MaxVision is actively soliciting OEM relationships with NLE integrators and software developers. MaxVision routinely does custom designs and configurations to meet the exacting demands of particular OEM customers and their applications.
