VTBook Magic!

VTBook comes with the transportation case “Magic Box”. With a little trick you can change the logo color from black to red. Express yourself. Or just change the color and let your friends guess how you did it. Oh, you want to know how? Try to find out or just click here.

At the same time you change the logo color you also swap the placement of VTBook and the DVI to VGA adapter inside. Find out which arrangement is more suitable to you for efficient handling.

Smart packaging

Oh, and if you wonder about the strange shape of the gift box. We wanted to make the product box as small as possible for two reasons: We can ship smaller products cheaper allowing you to buy VTBook at lower price. Plus, we wanted you to have a durable small package for transport. We made VTBook and its magic case very small. But we could not shrink the CD. This is why you can detach the CD pocket once you have installed the driver.

We give you a quick start!

Detach the CD pocket and open it:

Inside you'll find a quick start guide which gets you installed your VTBook in 5 minutes. No need to read any manual or online helps to get operating. For Power Users though, we put lots of information into the online help so you can learn how to be even more productive.

Here is in detail what you'll find on the CD sleeve interior. It is easy, isn't it?

Designed to stand time

Not etched in stone … but in stainless steel.
We could not find a label that does not come off over the years and which did not tear off its marking after 5000 insertions. Now we can guarantee your VTBook will continue to look elegant after many years of heavy duty use.

A loyal companion

Our DVI to VGA Adapter is not only beautiful:

We designed VTBook so you can plug it in and out twice daily for more than 5 years. The connectors for our DVI to VGA Adapter are custom made for us with extra strong Nickel and extra thick Gold plating, so we can guarantee 5000 insertion cycles and the image quality remains perfect. The Adapter comes with every VTBook. It is available also as an accessory: if you have a VGA Display at work and a VGA Display at home you can keep the Adapter screwed to the VGA cable and just plug / unplug the Adapter to VTBook. Hence the DVI port holds itself as it is more convenient just to plug in the Adapter than if you need to tighten or loosen the mounting screws of the VGA cable.

Some Notebooks are hot stuff

We have measured up to 65 degrees Celsius inside a Notebook. No glue will survive this over the years. However, every CardBus housing we found in the market uses glue to hold the parts together. This is why we engineered our own housing so we can guarantee to withstand 80 degrees Celsius for the lifetime of VTBook. And if you choose to operate VTBook in the hotest Notebook in a tropic environment, we built in a temperature sensor that over 80 degrees we change power management to ensure you never “overcook” your VTBook.

With VTBook you are not screwed!

When we built our first VTBook samples we started using them intensively. We realized that over time the screws holding the housing together got loose through vibration in planes and cars. The standard method to lock the screws is glue and could not be used. We could not solve the problem until our Italian Chief Technology Officer, who is a proud Ferrari fan, quoted Enzo Ferrari: “ Every piece which is not there can not break!” We threw our design away and made a new one. Now VTBook has no screws. And also no glue. Mmmh.. so how we hold the VTBook parts together? Almost with magic…
