"The EUROCOM Shark 4 is another impressive addition to our line of thin and light upgradeable, ultraportable laptops designed to offer high levels of performance in addition to sleek and classy designs as well as ultra-portability and ease of use." Mark Bialic, Eurocom President.
The EUROCOM Shark 4 is one of the few new laptops with an optical drive - we recognized this need for many customers so we listened by offering the Shark 4 with an upgradeable optical drive that can be a DVD drive, Blu-Ray drive or an additional storage drive bay. Upgradeability is a core tenet of all Eurocom systems; the Shark 4 is no different with upgradeable memory, storage, display, wireless card and keyboard.

The EUROCOM Shark 4 has an Intel HM87 Express Chipset running the Intel Core i7 4720HQ processor with 4 cores, 8 threads running at 2.6 GHz with integrated Intel HD Graphics 4600. Due to Hyper-Threading, the four cores can handle up to eight threads in parallel leading to better overall utilization of the CPU. The i7-4720HQ is rated at a TDP of 47 W including graphics card and memory controller.
The increased security, brought on by the TPM 2.0 can save organizations and individuals in IT management costs.
