Lenovo has introduced a complete range of futuristic consumer PCs - seven new notebook PCs with five choices of screen size and a diverse palette of colour, style and design.

Futuristic features of the range include expanded facial recognition for simple and convenient log-in, gesture recognition for ease of use, one-key rescue system to recover data with just one touch and high-definition entertainment features.

Amar Babu, managing director, Lenovo India announced on the occasion, ''Having received an overwhelming response to our consumer PC range, we are investing further in the Indian market with the launch of this impressive new product range. The consumer PC segment is one-third of the total PC market in India and is growing at a very fast pace. We are riding this wave and we believe this new range offers the best mix of great looking products with great features to consumers.''

According to Ramprasad L, vice president, transactional consumer sales, Lenovo India, ''Our new consumer product range reflects our heritage of technological innovation and exceptional engineering. We are confident that this new Lenovo range with its unique styles, colors and features will completely change the current market dynamics due to the sheer options and features it offers to customers. Along with the new range of products, Lenovo is also launching a host of innovative offers called the Diwali Double Deal offer. So customers get to choose not only from the new range of products but also from the exciting range of Diwali offers.''

''When we first introduced Intel Centrino back in 2003, there were very few Wi-Fi hotspots, YouTube videos and social media didn't really exist, 'thin and light' only referred to weight goals. Today we are offering computing solutions across the entire spectrum,'' said Gopal Swaminathan, general manager - OEM Business, Intel South Asia.

''The new notebooks from Lenovo are based on Intel Centrino 2 processor technology and pave the way to HD entertainment, rich online gaming and faster broadband wireless speeds, pretty much packing all of the features of your home entertainment system into a laptop. And on the other hand, the Lenovo S9 and S10 series are based on the Intel Atom
