EUROCOM D900F Panther Blows the Doors Off

Title: EUROCOM D900F Panther Blows the Doors Off
"While not a household name, Eurocom has been building some of the world’s most powerful portable computers for more than 20 years. The company offers lightweight notebooks and tablets, all-in-one portable desktop replacement notebooks, mobile workstations and mobile servers. When we first looked at one of the Canadian company’s systems five years ago, we were duly impressed. But the firm’s newest offering, its top-of-the-line EUROCOM D900F Panther mobile workstation, blew us away. In fact, it delivers performance that beats most desktop workstations."

EUROCOM D900F Panther notebook functions as an engineering workstation and server
by DE Editors
"The D900F Panther-i7 is a notebook that can handle demanding engineering and visualization workloads and, through its support of Windows Server 2008, function as a server for many small- and mid-sized businesses. Its combination of power and notebook convenience, says Eurocom, makes the Panther-i7 suitable for software and database developers, training centers, military personnel, emergency relief organizations, service organizations, as well as engineers who must frequently travel yet require access to powerful computing"
Anthony J. Lockwood
Editor at Large, Desktop Engineering Magazine
"Eurocom has been building mobile workstations and mobile servers for engineers working with compute-intensive CAD/CAM/CAE, math, imaging, and similar applications for a number of years now. They really have defined such systems, carving themselves out an excellent niche of engineering power and portability coupled with a knack for incorporating the latest technologies quickly. With that in mind, you should give Eurocom's D900F Panther-i7 workstation- and server-class notebook a good, long look. It's on the edge of the leading edge in workstation technology, whether you're talking portables or desktops."

Eurocom Gives Desktop Replacement A Whole New Meaning
By Brian Sheinberg
Eurocom Gives Desktop Replacement A Whole New Meaning
The system has a professional, classy look to it, with a glossy gray finish. The WUXGA 1,920 x 1,200 screen (a WSXGA+ 1,600 x 1,050 version also is available) is bright and displays colors vividly, although this comes at the cost of a little glare. A matte version of the screen also is available. Blu-ray movies looked beautiful, allowing this workstation to serve double duty for entertainment purposes.
Four strategically placed fans line the bottom of the case and small rubber legs prop the unit up. This design does a surprisingly exceptional job of keeping the system cool, with the hottest points barely warm to the touch.
When using Primate Labs' Geekbench2 benchmarking suite, the D900F scored a chart-topping 9,827. While we were hoping to break the 10,000 mark, this still is in the range of only the fastest rack-mounted servers we've tested -- pretty good for a notebook system.
Overall, the D900F Panther is a computer enthusiast's dream. It takes the power of the fastest desktop components available and fits it into a portable (though heavy) chassis.
