Communications Advisor to the Zinox Group, Mr. Echika Ezuka,
who disclosed this, said that Legacy Notebook is very simple to use, sleek,
stylish, unprecedented and stubbornly Nigerian has been described as the height
of ingenuity by David Ibhawoh, the Intel Inc. West Africa Head, who also urged
the government to use the Notebook to brand Nigeria world-wide as part of its
transformation initiative.
He said that as a member of the Intel Diamond’s Club, Zinox
received Intel’s technical support during the design and production of the
Zinox Legacy.
The system, Mr. Ibhawoh said has consolidated the ranking of
Zinox as a manufacturer of world-class computers. He argued that the huge
investments that Zinox is incurring in trying to secure the nation’s place in
technology can only be justified through massive patronage by the Governments
and people of Nigeria.
He stressed that patronage remains the surest way to support
local OEMS and grow technology.
Announcing the launch date of October 1st for the new
product, the Managing Director of Zinox Computers, Mukoro Emonine said that the
Zinox Legacy merges the digital visions of our founding fathers with the
insight of Nigeria’s 21st Century global digital whiz kids in one notebook that
is certified and powered by Intel, the Number 1 chips producer in the world.
The launch, he said, is timed to lift the spirit of Nigerians from the
prevalence of economic depression and social instability. It is a statement
that this country is moving slowly forward in spite of all the setbacks.
The Zinox Legacy runs on a B940 Intel 2.0 GHz processor, 2GB
Ram, 320GB hard disk, and a 14” High Definition screen (HM 65). This sleek and
stylishly built notebook has 6 Cell Smart Li battery, card reader, DVD Supermulti,
and a 1.3M Camera and more and highly loaded other features include wifi bgn,
Windows 7 Professional and Office 2010 said Mr. Mukoro Emomine, the Managing
Director of Zinox Computers.
The bios of the Legacy Notebook is embedded with information
on the profiles, milestones and quotations of the founding fathers of this
great nation- Herbert Macaulay, Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe – nationalists; Sir Abubakar
Tafawa Balewa, first Head of State and Obafemi Awolowo, first opposition
leader;
He said that apart from the configuration, Nigerians would
be elated by the fact that the cover of the laptop is wrapped in a national
symbol, the Nigerian Coat of Arms.
Mr. Mukoro said that the use of the Coat of Arms is supposed
to confer a feeling of ownership on Nigerians; evoke a consciousness of pride
in our national values, aspirations, and achievements; stimulate higher levels
of creativity and productivity among Nigerians who are privileged to own the
Zinox Legacy Notebook, limited edition; and stubbornly proclaim the Nigerian
character while encouraging the frequent use of our national symbols at the
personal and corporate levels.
He explained that only 25,000 of the Legacy notebook would
be produced and distributed strictly on the basis of first come first served,
to mark a decade of computer manufacturing at Zinox.
Zinox Technologies Ltd, Africa’s most integrated ICT firm
was launched in 2001 by a team of tested IT technocrats with a combined
experience of over 128 years in different continents, led by Mr. Leo Stan Ekeh.
As the foremost company to go into an uncharted terrain of
Computer production in West Africa, Zinox had Nigeria in mind as it debuted
with the first ever Nigerian internationally certified branded computers with
the Naira keyboard.
Zinox technologies Limited, with its strong research and
development backbone has won the certification of Microsoft and Intel and
remains the only computer manufacturer in Nigeria to earn the NIS ISO 9001:2000
Quality Management Certification.
Zinox has won many Awards nationally and internationally
including the Best Computer Manufacturer of the Decade from the Nigerian
Computer Society.

It's all good to develop the product. Commemorative products are just the right target to market such as membrane switch and other.
My brother is so addicted to games that's why he bought himself a nice and sleek laptop at the desktop computers online shop. It's pretty fast for gaming, I just hope he still does his assignments after playing.
