“Keeping kiosks current”
Chris Ciufo, OpenSystems Media Group Editorial Director and Editor of PC/104 and Small Form Factors, selected Portwell’s PEB-9738VGA for his Editor’s Choice Award in the 2010 PC/104 and Small Form Factors Resource Guide and featured the product on page 57 of the publication. Ciufo describes the PEB-9738VGA as “the next-generation processor board that succeeds the PEB-9737VGA, which powers the proof-of-concept POS system Intel debuted at the National Retail Federation Convention last year.” He highlights the fact that the PEB-9738VGA, “equipped with the Intel Core i7 processor and Mobile Intel QM57 Express chipset, this microATX motherboard incorporates Intel Intelligent Power-Sharing Technology, providing better performance and power consumption than Core 2 Duo processors as well as improved graphics capabilities compared to GM45 chipsets.”
Greater security and energy efficiency
In addition to delivering greater performance-per-watt and graphics performance, the PEB-9738VGA features Intel vPro™ technology with new Intel Active Management Technology 6.0 and offers improved power management and greater security to allow the administrators to better manage systems remotely.
