Another Laptop Q -- Fujitsu Lifebook?

<p>Fujitsu LifeBook S series to be precise.</p>

<p>Is this a good one to have for college? My cousin is offering his used one to me as a gift (1 year old).</p>

<p>I've never heard of this brand (I'm usually told to go with Dell). I've looked for reviews online and haven't found any.</p>

<p>Can anyone offer feedback? Thanks.</p>

<p>Fujitsu is a little known, yet excellent brand.
I'm not very familiar with them, but check out <a href="http://www.notebookreview.com%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.notebookreview.com&lt;/a> for reviews. That site also has a discussion forum which might help you more than CC, regarding this laptop.</p>

<p>Good luck :)</p>

<p>See if this review matches your Lifebook...</p>

<p>thanks alot guys...those sites REALLY help! :)</p>

<p>Fujitsu makes laptops?? I though all they made was grocerey store scanners and PBX phone systems!</p>

<p>No, they definately make laptops. They also made the first tablet PC's (years before the whole tablet PC thing caught on.</p>

<p>i'm typing this on my fujitsu lifebook p5020d right now...</p>

<p>it's lasted an entire cross country flight (wash. dulles to san diego) AND right now, no recharging (yea, the brightness is waay down though).</p>

<p>=D</p>

<p>I LOVE MY S-SERIES LIFEBOOK. No really, I hate typing in caps but I'm just that enthusiastic. The shiny screen gets compliments from everyone (and was at least $300 cheaper than clunkier Sony Vaio's with comparable features). The S series is like, portable, but also powerful. There are better laptops out there, but you can't beat this for the price. It's a great college laptop.</p>
