“Best Buy continues to be an important retail partner for Samsung, and we’re excited to offer a range of notebook and netbook options to our customers that deliver exceptional craftsmanship and performance,” said Todd Bouman, director of product marketing at Samsung Electronics Information Technology Division. “True to Samsung’s unique, customer-focused design aesthetic, these mobile PCs are flexible enough to be used as mobile devices or desktop replacements for all-day use.”
MULTIMEDIA POWERHOUSE NOTEBOOKS
The R80 series of notebooks are perfect for watching movies both at home and on the go with a built in Blu-ray optical drive. Additionally, the nVIDIA GeForce graphics card included in the R580 and R780 will appeal to the gamer in any household. The HD LED displays (17.3” – R780, 15.6” – R580, 14.0” – R480) provide the sharpest images and boldest colors with a proper 16:9 aspect ratio. With a built-in Webcam and integrated microphone, they are ideal for use communicating with friends and family over Skype or other VoIP networks. With an HDMI output, these models are perfect for college students or anyone who wants to play Blu-ray movies or stream HD video directly to their TV.
“Samsung’s notebooks are a great addition to our computer assortment,” said Kelley Noreen, senior merchant at Best Buy, “especially for those customers who are looking for a multimedia PC experience.”

A NETBOOK THAT BLENDS DESIGN AND PERFORMANCE
With its scratch-resistant, polished pearl white design, non-glare display and nearly full-sized island keyboard, the Samsung N210 netbook is both stylish and user friendly.
