Fujitsu Shows Off New LifeBook Range

Another thin-and-light is the LifeBook S710 notebook, offering a 14-inch widescreen HD display, Windows 7 Professional, Intel Core i5 and i7 processors and a weight of just over 5 pounds. There’s a dedicated smart-card slot and fingerprint sensor, as well as a modular bay and port-replicator support. Coming in February, the starting price will be $1,207 (£757).

For enterprise users wanting a larger display there’s the LifeBook AH550 desktop alternative notebook. It pairs a 15.6-inch widescreen Crystal View HD display with a choice of Intel Core processors, Windows 7 Home Premium, integrated and shared graphics, an integrated HDMI port, a webcam and a multi-format DVD writer for reading and writing multiple CD and VD formats.

Arriving later in January, its starting price will be $749 (£470).

The final two new notebooks are also desktop replacements, the LifeBook NH570 and the LifeBook E780.

The NH570, ideal for video editing, boasts an 18.4-inch high-definition display, a Nvidia graphics controller with 1GB of dedicated graphics memory, a choice of Intel Core processors, Windows 7 Home Premium, and Ethernet, e-SATA, SPDIF, HDMI, USB and Firewire ports. It’ll arrive later in January, starting at $1,199 (£752).

And finally, coming in February, the E780, with its 15.6-inch widescreen HD display, is said to offer a desktop-like experience. Intel Core processors can be paired with a Nvidia graphics controller, again with 1GB of dedicated graphics memory. A modular bay can offer additional battery life or a Blu-ray player. Pricing starts at $1,223 (£767).

Fujitsu also introduced two new entry-level, single-socket Primergy servers, powered by Intel’s 32-nanometer “Clarkdale” processors.
