The notebooks are equipped with Intel Centrino 2 with vPro technology and utilize Intel integrated 3D GMA X4500MHD graphics. Both the 14.1-inch TravelMate 6493 and the 15.4-inch TravelMate 6593 offer WXGA TFT LCD panels with a 1280x800 pixel resolution, supporting simultaneous multi-window viewing via Acer GridVista, a business tool to accommodate up to eight display windows on one screen at once.

The one-size-fits-all commercial docking stations are designed to support all TravelMate form factors and models. The commercial docking stations feature a plug-n-play solution allowing connection of multiple devices in one operation and the ability to dock TravelMate notebooks without having to reboot.
