The CPU is similar to those available with lower models like the 5730 and 5735, but the 5738 features a larger hard drive, as well as an HDMI port and, supposedly, a brighter screen. With integrated Intel graphics, it is not intended to enable superior gaming experiences. Other features include a DVD writer, 5-in-1 card reader, four USB ports, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi. Windows Vista Home Premium arrives preloaded.
