I'd take a Fujitsu over a Dell any day of the week.

Interesting.. When I post this laptop, for less, it's cold lol

Good deal for a decent spec like this, I would probably steer clear of Fujitsu though.

Very average CPU - http://www.notebookcheck.net/

Position 88 AMD Athlon X2 QL-62 Puma FSB 3600 L2 cache 1024 MHZ 2000 TDP -35 Cores 2

COmparisons are hard , but it's big brother the QL-64 has a 3DMark06 CPU of 1464 So I estimate that about 1430 (on a 3 year old bench)

Comparable ( approx ) with Intel Core Duo T2370 or on C2D somewhere between Intel Core 2 Duo T5500 and T5550.

The peripheral devices are very good and alot of multimedia workload can be offloaded.

As a portable HTPC I cannot fault it - If your needs are more then search on

I support a 700Mhz Fujitsu Siemens desktop that has been left ' on ' since purchase in 2001 - The owners are starting to ask me if the next one will be as reliable .................

COCO

alot of people on here dont like overclockers, some of my overclockers deals went cold for that very reason. I have used overclockers only once, they seem ok. I think the reason why its gone hot is it appears to be the cheapest brand new laptop with bluray hdmi.

If it runs the others it will run this as well (in the same low detail at least)
