Product Description
The ThinkCentre M50 model features a tool-free chassis design, which simplifies and enhances usability. Encased in a durable steel chassis, components inside the machine, such as the hard disk and memory, can easily be removed by the customer, making the PC serviceable and upgradeable, helping to limit the downtime and cost associated with on-site support. Cable routing is bundled out of the way for easy access to components and cable ends and user touch points are colored blue to be easily identified by the user.ThinkCentre models also feature an innovative "caddy" that surrounds the hard disk drive, locking it into place without the use of tools or screws. Rubber bumpers on the caddy decrease vibration and deliver quieter operation. Other mechanical improvements have been made to the overall design of the ThinkCentre PCs, including improved airflow and reduced noise. The ThinkCentre range includes many of the latest industry standard technologies to improve overall system performance and efficiency. ThinkCentre models incorporate the latest Intel processors.
Amazon.com Product Description
Built for demanding professional environments, the IBM ThinkCentre M50 (818737U) offers all the tools you need to crunch spreadsheets and create business presentations. It features mechanical modifications that improve airflow and reduced noise. This mid-priced desktop offers a 2.8 GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor, super-fast Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, 40 GB hard drive, 256 MB of installed RAM, Windows XP Professional, included keyboard and optical wheel mouse, floppy drive, and CD-ROM drive.

The Basics

Hard Drive: The ATA-100 (Enhanced IDE) 40 GB (7200 RPM) hard drive is small in comparison with other desktop PCs in this price range, but it's understandable due to its classification as a business professional computer (where much data is shared and stored on networked servers).
Processor: The 2.8 GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor offers the speed you'll need for today's demanding office productivity software and multimedia presentations. It features a fast 800 MHz front-side bus (FSB), which measures how fast a processor and the main memory communicate, and a 1 MB L2 cache. (An L2, or secondary, cache temporarily stores data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system's performance.)
Memory: The 256 MB of installed RAM (PC2700, 333 MHz) will get you started, but you'll want to add more to handle any kind of multimedia application and today's processor-intensive business productivity suites. This desktop has a 4 GB maximum RAM capacity.
CD/DVD Drive: This desktop comes only with a 48x CD-ROM drive.
Keyboard & Mouse: The ThinkCenter M50 comes with an IBM Preferred Pro full-size keyboard (PS/2) and an IBM USB optical wheel mouse.

Chassis Design
It's encased in a durable black steel chassis that offers maximum flexibility for servicing and upgrading components inside the M50. Toolless-entry design makes upgrades easier and repairs faster with a cover that can be opened without tools, plus toolless slots and internal bays that flip up to allow components to slide out. ThinkCentre M50 desktops also feature an innovative "caddy" that surrounds the hard disk drive, locking it into place without the use of tools or screws. Rubber bumpers on the caddy decrease vibration and deliver quieter operation. Other mechanical improvements have been made to the overall design of the ThinkCentre PCs, including improved airflow and reduced noise.

Screen, Graphics and Sound
The integrated Intel Extreme Graphics 2 based graphics will be fine for business productivity software suites, Web browsing, and general purpose computing. It will produce a maximum resolution of 2048 x 1536 pixels and up to 16.7 million colors. It also features integrated SoundMax Cadenza audio and an internal mono speaker.

Connectivity and Expansion Slots
This M50 model has a good assortment of expansion capabilities for the office. It features a 3.5-inch, 1.44 MB floppy drive, and has the following external connectivity ports:

It also has an integrated 56K modem (V.90) and an RJ-45 LAN network port (for a 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T Ethernet connection to networks and DSL/cable modems).

Preloaded System and Software

It also comes preloaded with Norton Antivirus 2004 (3 months subscription), PC Doctor, IBM RecordNow, and IBM Rescue and Recovery with Rapid Restore.
