Creativity Action Center Click on your browser's back button to return to the previous page. Technology Description: The Creativity Action Center combines strategically placed ports on the front of the system with intuitive, easy to use imaging software to enable you to spark your creativity or quench your thirst for action. The Creativity Action Center designed into the Presario 5000 and 5100 Series Minitowers places two USB ports and one MIDI/GamePort on the front of the PC. This is in contrast to the location where USB ports are traditionally located � on the back. Locating the ports on the front gives the consumer a quick and easy connection to USB cameras, scanners, and game pads. Once you�ve connected your USB digital camera, the Creativity Action Center provides video and still image capture and photo editing software for manipulating digital images and sending them to friends and family. USB devices are emerging onto the scene and the consumer will be ready with the Compaq Creativity Action Center. Key Supporting Features: Easily attach and detach devices to connectors on the front of the PC:With two USB ports and MIDI game port mounted on the front of the PC, it�s never been easier to connect USB devices and game pads. The ports are tucked behind a cool, smoked glass door that elegantly conceals them while enhancing the look of the system. Locating the ports on the front eliminates the need to cumbersomely reach behind the system to connect and disconnect devices. Quick attachment means instant fun for gamers and photo hobbyists. It also means that devices can be neatly stored away when not in use, thus eliminating desktop clutter. Use the fun and intuitive software to create and send images to friends and family:The Creativity Action Center also provides imaging software for capturing and editing digital images. Capture still and video images easily from your USB digital camera and edit photo images with the help of intuitive software. Send captured images to friends and family over the Internet:Once you have captured your prize picture send it over the Internet via e-mail. Or, using a USB video camera, capture a video clip, edit it, and send a video postcard using the easy to use video e-mail software bundled with your Compaq Presario 5000 or 5100 Series. See who you are talking to with VideoPhone:Connect a USB VideoPhone camera and communicate visually with long distance friends and family.
