Dont be fulled by the 1.6ghz Processor speed this is not slow as the chip set inside a centrino Laptop is a Pentium M (mobile)therefore unlike most Laptop and Desktop Buyers Many of you would overlook this Lap




top due to the 1.6 Ghz processor DONT this laptop is just as fast as a 2.6 or a 2.8 GHz pentium 4 on the market just now.

All round this is really Nice piece of kit and even though many people dont associate Fujtsu with Laptops Ive heard of very few problems with the Fujitu Brand.
As for centrino the chip seems very reliable makes your battery power up to 4 HOURS and is about half the weight and very thin compared to most laptops out there today

My Veiw if youve got the money and want a good solid performing Laptop that takes up little space has wi fi technoligy for easy internet access where ever you are and is nice and light thin and has a very large hard drive, then you could do worst than plump for this machine
A WINNER IN MY BOOKS.
