For hi-def lovers, select models of the Qosmio X500 Series laptops will be available with an integrated Blu-ray® drive, so movie fanatics can enjoy their favorite movies right from the laptop’s stunning, high-definition18.4-inch diagonal widescreen display.

such as two-finger pinch, swipe, rotate and scroll.
