And I hate that white ibook. White is so kiddy. I really hope the next ibook(macbook) is silver or black.

Fujitsu are always overpriced, but this has it all. I wouldnt pay more than 3000 for a machine... Considering WE ALL want new ones way too soon.]]>Feb 28th 2006 12:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/Feb 28th 2006 12:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/
People seem to get excited about pretty colors, black turtle necks, and no software now days.

Apple is a fad.

This is way out of hand.

Well back to the subject. This is indeed the most desirable notebook out there at this point based on all those specs. Well a bit overpriced but this thing will eat any competition for now. Way to go. I want one bad .. now!]]>Feb 28th 2006 1:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/
I find corporate users are much harder on notebooks than any other user. they just basically toss them around like nothing. They dont care they didnt pay for them. i can tell you how many smashed LCDS i saw working in IT from dumb asses who couldnt take care of their stuff. One guy dropped beer on 3 different laptops.]]>Feb 28th 2006 2:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/
Love Fujitsu never had a problem from the equipment, users? now that's a different story.]]>Feb 28th 2006 2:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/

All better for business use. I'm not sure which part of it is a toy.

For work use, if Linux runs well on this Fujitsu laptop, I'd consider it instead of a Mac. For home use, I'd go with the Mac as it's cheaper and friendlier.]]>Feb 28th 2006 2:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/
For the love, how did a product manager justify nearly a full 5 times the cost of my Toshiba Tecra S2?!

I have a GigaNIC, 11g, card reader PLUS a 15-in screen with 64MB dedicated VRAM!

After rebate and adding 1GB of RAM to the stock 512, I was still under $1400!

Absolutely ludicrous. Fire whoever came up with this...

P.S. Sad to admit, but the Apple fanbots (not misspelled) above actually have a leg to stand on here. Even if the iBooks were/are the worst value in portable computing right after HP.]]>Feb 28th 2006 2:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/

It's called the Sony SZ 160 Premimum and it sells for about $2500 less.

-But I did say I wouldnt be a Fujitsu, overpriced.

#17 You are a Macgeek to the fullest extent. You say better, better, better...(Better in your eyes)BUT NOONE uses Macs for such apps.

Mac is a toy for most of the intended audience - home consumers. Anyone "pro" might be owned be artists and musicians, which who are on a whole, hobbyists, and not professionals.

#20 that is so old, be original.

#22 you are correct, Mac is simplified for people that get viruses and worms on PC and think they are totally protected now that they use a Mac.

I'm getting pretty fed up with all this apple garbage on this website. I love this website ... but with all these trolls it's almost impossible. Nobody is talking about apple in this new article where did apple come from???

Well, there is a very good reason: today was the day Apple would announce new/updated products, so obviously a lot of Mac users happen to be checking this site. That picture has a very "black iPod" look, so for a second many thought "Is that the new iBook?" and posted based on the realization it wasn't.

Back on topic: nice machine, just waaay too expensive, particularly for a 12 inch machine with integrated graphics (Intel 945). Interesting tidbit: it has an integrated fingerprint scanner.]]>Feb 28th 2006 11:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/Mar 1st 2006 4:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/]]>Mar 1st 2006 8:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/28/fujitsu-siemens-lifebook-q2010-worlds-most-desirable-notebook/

Welcome to the real world, friend:

Better word processor/presentation software than Windows - Yes, because everyone I know complains about attending Keynote presentations. Sorry, Powerpoint owns the market. Jobs was a genius for allowing MS to conquer yet another branch of the business market.

And what word processor do you use? I use Word, also the market leader because of ease of use. I understand that there is a Mac version that Apple begged MS to continue.

Better web browser than Windows comes with - And Firefox is better that IE and Safari. Nice qualified language, fanboy

Better security than is standard on Windows - I have a hardware firewall built into the router and I have anti-virus software that runs and updates in the background. Never been hacked. Never had a virus. Once again, I like that you realized you had to qualify your language to make your faulty claim.

Simpler UI than windows - to you perhaps. To someone who either has minimal computer exposure or has been using Windows for a decade, your anecdotal claim based upon your own personal experience is worthless.

All better for business use - The best thing for business use: affordability. Take 100 workstations and do the math. And that's just the hardware cost. XP licenses are cheaper because you get the point upgrades for free (SP1,SP2). What's Apple charging for point upgrades now? $100 a piece? Do you get bulk discounts? Sorry, from a cost benefit analysis, MS wins.

Re: The Siemens book - aimed at a prestige class. As far as other Lifebook's go, mine is 2 years old, has a P4 2.8 chip and still gets 2.5 hrs. of life on a charge.

The finish is great and the thing has immediate "wow" factor. It does, however, generate a lot of unwanted attention. On the train, if I just want to get some work done, I get people asking what it is...and daren't get it out of my bag on the late trains...lol.

Comments about the finish attracting finger prints is true, my children like drawing in fingermarks on it, when people touch it it gets covered (people loooove stroking it), BUT....none of this matters, as the nice people from FJS provide a cleaning/polishing cloth. ACE.

Really pleased with it.
