My Fujitsu L1010 Review

Thank you, Audrey for letting me fiddle around with your laptop.
I forgot to check on the specs for this model, so all the specs used here are what generally found.


Specs
  • 14' WXGA LCD screen.
  • Intel Core 2 Duo processors with intel PM45 chipsets.
  • Windows Vista Basic
  • NVIDIA 9300M GS with 1GB
  • 1.3 mega pixel webcam, finger print recognition, memory card reader slot, 3 USB, vga, HDMI, 5 application buttons
  • 2GB DDR3 ram with 250GB 5400rpm hard disk.
  • Battery around 3 hours on normal usage
  • Around 2.5kg

Touch and feel
  • Well the first thing I noticed about this laptop was its very obvious weight issues. A little too heavy for a 14' laptop. Feels more like a 17'. My 15' is lighter than it. O.o
  • The built of the laptop feels tough, maybe from the weight as well.
  • Finger print magnet
  • Laptop fan works well with keeping it cool.
  • It has a Dust Filter for the fan. (this is a first)
  • Keys have a normal feel to it and touch pad works well. It has a rougher surface on the touch pad I think.

Performance
  • This laptop usually works pretty well on normal occasions. Sometimes just before presentations it is known to cause problems. XD
  • The heat from the laptop is pretty well controlled and all the ports are located a pretty convenient spots.
  • Games on this laptop would be ok on low settings. I have seen my friends playing Left 4 Dead on it, it runs pretty smoothly with all details intact. Not sure about Left 4 Dead 2.
  • It is preloaded with a little more programs than I would prefer, since it slows down the laptop.

Here are some benchmark scores for the graphic card. *Click Here*
Notebookcheck gives very detailed benchmark scores.


Overall
Well, from the price the laptop was bought at, it is pretty much a bargain laptop. It will do its job for all those paper work and assignments and even spit a little graphic power for games. Suitable for college use or home use. All else, look for a different laptop. A Fujitsu at this price, * wavy hand gesture* 50 50.
