Samsung drops new Sens R40 widescreen laptop

While it seems most of the design pizazz at Samsung has been poured into their phones lately, they still know their way around a laptop, and this Sens R40 looks like a decent contender for your Core Duo won. Specs are fairly average, with an 80GB HDD, 512MB of RAM, ATI Radeon Xpress 200M graphics, DVD burner and souped up wireless thanks to built-in Atheros Super G WLAN. Luckily, Samsung has you fairly well set for entertainment, thanks to the AVS premium function for playing media without booting, 4W stereo speakers and of course that 15.4-inch widescreen. The best news comes in terms of price: 1,400,000 KRW -- about $1467 in USD. Not too shabby for a halfway-decent Core Duo machine.
