I've heard of it being with Laptops....But this is the first time I have had it.

Love my New laptop...but it's smaller than my last one...

I went from a 15.6" screen to a 14" one. Love the speed with the i5
Has Dolby Advanced Audio and something I never heard about...WiMax ??
It says something like it's better than WiFi ..and I can it pick up most anywhere ...

Wimax is the next gen wireless broadband technology. 4G. older laptops were available with both wifi & a 3G radio. His has a wimax radio but you'd need a separate data plan from your wireless carrier.

"""""WiMAX is an IP based, wireless broadband access technology that provides performance similar to 802.11/Wi-Fi networks with the coverage and QOS (quality of service) of cellular networks. WiMAX is also an acronym meaning "Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX).

WiMAX is a wireless digital communications system, also known as IEEE 802.16, that is intended for wireless "metropolitan area networks". WiMAX can provide broadband wireless access (BWA) up to 30 miles (50 km) for fixed stations, and 3 - 10 miles (5 - 15 km) for mobile stations. In contrast, the WiFi/802.11 wireless local area network standard is limited in most cases to only 100 - 300 feet (30 - 100m)."""""
