PCG-FX290 specifications

The Sony PCG-FX290 and PCG-FX290K are part of Sony's line of compact and portable laptops that were specifically designed for everyday computing needs in the early 2000s. These models were particularly popular among students and professionals who sought mobility without sacrificing essential performance attributes.

At the core of the PCG-FX290 and FX290K is an Intel Pentium 4 processor. This processor offered users a much-needed boost in performance, allowing for smooth multitasking and the ability to run various applications simultaneously. With a clock speed ranging typically from 1.5 to 2.0 GHz, users could handle basic tasks such as web browsing, word processing, and even light media consumption with relative ease.

One of the standout features of these models was their 14.1-inch LCD display, which provided a resolution of 1024x768 pixels. The screen offered vibrant colors and decent brightness, making it suitable for both productivity tasks and watching videos. The laptop's compact form factor was designed for portability, making it easy to carry to lectures or meetings.
