Fujitsu-Siemens' 64-bit Amilo A1630 laptop

Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo A1630


The Register takes a gander at the Amilo A1630, Fujitsu-Siemens' first laptop with AMD's Athlon 64-bit processor, and which also sports a widescreen 15.4-inch LCD display, an 80GB hard drive, 512MB of RAM, a 128MB graphics card, a DVD+R/RW burner, built-in 802.11g, and support for 5.1-channel surround sound — if you can be bothered to set it up. As expected the Amilo's 64-bit chip packed a punch, but the battery life is only about average for a laptop this powerful.
