PRODUCT NAME:  DECpc LPv+ Personal Computer


OVERVIEW:

The new DECpc LPv+ systems give you Energy Star-compliant power 
management plus uncompromised Windows acceleration in a slim, 
money-saving low profile package.

These desktop PCs are among the first to use Intel's advanced power 
management features built into the SL-enhanced microprocessors.  The 
systems deliver full performance on demand while both system and 
monitor consume less than 30 watts in sleep mode -- well below the 
Environmental Protection Agency's 60-watt standard for Energy Star 
compliance.  Yet, they push the graphics speed limit with 
second-generation GUI (graphical user interface) acceleration built 
into the motherboard.
