ECS to 'Drive the New PC Era' at Brazil Comdex   Taipei -- July 31, 2002 with innovative, cost-effective PCs, world class motherboards and great wireless networking solutions ECS Computer Systems full range of innovative, cost effective products will be on display at Comdex Brazil in Sao Paulo August 20~23. Recently named one of the world's Top Eight technology firms in BusinessWeek Magazine's fourth annual Info Tech 100 list, ECS will spotlight its expanded portfolio of complete, highly cost effective laptop and desktop PC systems along with cutting edge wireless network solutions and their widely acclaimed motherboards at Comdex Brazil. ECS is located at Booth B10. The ECS Comdex Brazil theme, 'Driving the New PC Era,' is more than a slogan. ECS is making big waves in the PC world with exciting complete PCs like the lithe, stylish Aio all-in-one LCD personal computer and the breakthrough DeskNote line that delivers desktop computing power with laptop portability. Sharing the spotlight with complete PC systems are the computer main circuit boards that earned ECS the title "King of the Motherboard" and won a bevy of Editor's Choice, Best Buy, Gold and other awards from publications throughout Europe and Asia. ECS will display its entire motherboard line at Comdex Brazil. While 'techies' check out the system boards and MIS managers learn more about ECS wireless networking products, dealers, media and consumers are likely to swarm around the innovative, eye-catching Aio and DeskNote PCs. As the PC of tomorrow that is available today, Aio combines a footprint only slightly larger than a laptop PC with the power of a full-featured multimedia desktop computer. Aio's sleek, high-tech H-shaped design makes Aio a joy to look at and its vibrant built-in 15 or 17-inch TFT LCD color screen with resolution of up to 1024 x 786 is a joy to view thanks to an adjustable frame that makes raising, lowering or slanting the screen to find the most comfortable viewing angle a snap for everyone from tots to extra-tall users. Aio is also a snap to set up: After opening the box, the user is four simple steps away from a world of computing experience: Insert the mouse cord into a clearly marked socket; connect the keyboard to its easy-to-reach port, plug the power line into a wall socket and turn on Aio. That's it. And if four-steps are too many, an optional cordless RF keyboard and mouse reduces set up to a simple matter of plugging in and powering up. Sharing center stage is the ECS DeskNote, a unique hybrid that molds the best attributes of desktop and portable PCs into a unique, all-purpose computer. It's light, compact and mobile like a laptop, but as powerful and full featured as a top-of-the-line desktop. Traditional laptop features are limited by space requirements for an on-board battery. The ECS DeskNote portable desktop computer moves to an external power supply that doubles as a mini uninterrupted power supply, delivering stable and reliable 'fuel' for desktop computing power and outstanding performance while making room for a wide variety of ports that wouldn't fit on a traditional laptop. Along with state-of-the-art features, both Aio and DeskNote PCs come with an amazingly affordable price tag especially designed to appeal to Brazilian and South American computer users. Founded in 1987, ECS is headquartered in Taiwan with operations in North America, Europe and the Pacific Rim. ISO 9001 and 14001 certified, ECS's widely acclaimed research and development team, close relationships with major component suppliers, flexible production capabilities and state of the art manufacturing facilities add up to cutting edge products that reach the market at the peak of customer demand.
