BOATCOMP.NET
An integrated entertaining system
Last year the dynamic Italian Glomex Company, specialized in
manufacturing antennas and TV SAT systems, introduced an
innovative product available now in its definitive version,
although it can be always updated due to its structure. Talk is of
BoatComp.net, an integrated system for entertaining and
communication: in detail it's about an apparatus featuring the
following functions: TV with digital and SAT decoder, Terrestrial
and SAT radio systems, DVD, CD, MP3 player as well as various
video and audio compression formats, a platform for surfing in
Internet, sending and receiving e - mails, writing or visualizing
all documents received, surfing in the great network by either
GRPS with GSM or by other connecting forms; moreover Boat.Comp.net
also features a platform made for managing video - games,
representing via graphics all boat and equipments manuals in
effort on visualizing and fast searching any interesting argument.
Such an integrated multisystem could appear difficult to use
indeed, but this is not BoatComp's case being it user - friendly
equipment thanks to its high - quality software capable to fast
and directly lead via graphics the one who uses it towards the
best choice. The system consists of a central unit and peripheral
ones installable overall on board; they are all independent from
each other and capable of offering each guest the performance or
service he want to use, also simultaneously.
For operating all this is sufficient to use a remote control
properly made for, manufactured from the company in Ravenna
comprising also a complete QWERTY key board for writing via mail,
etc. Advantages immediately coming from this apparatus on board a
yacht result in its input system and lead in since the input
signal will be then equalized from the central unit to the
peripheral ones.
Practically by all necessary for connecting only an apparatus
enclosing BoatComp.net before, it is possible to operate
simultaneously a virtual all - comprising rack now.
Its powerful hard disk allows saving films, music, documents,
archives, games and all it is needed to be on board while
cruising. Concerning the audio output Boat Comp is a Hi Fi system
being provided by high - quality components capable to ensure high
audio level. In size it is compact and its box, right studied to
allow it suiting to any surrounding, makes it aesthetically pleasant.
