Fujitsu LifeBook P7010D May 2nd, 2005 | by Ian Bell

Conclusion

The Fujitsu LifeBook 7010 is a smoking hot system that simply redefines business computing. Essentially, you get every conceivable feature packed into this tiny little 3.3 pound system. Sure its 1.2GHz processor is not the fastest on the market, but remembers this is an ultra-portable laptop, and cooling is a priority. What you do get is 512MB of memory, a DVD writer, 1280x768 resolutions (default), an 80GB hard drive, integrated 802.11b/g WiFi, and even a finger print scanner for added security.

The Fujitsu LifeBook P7010 combines the business sense of IBM's ThinkPad notebook line with styling associated with the likes of Apple or Sony. Business users will appreciate the finger print scanner, the long battery life and unlimited 24/7 tech support ensuring the system endures their business travels. We would have liked to have seen a longer warranty attached to the 7010, especially considering its price, but at least you can purchase an extended warranty.
