I really love this laptop, previously siemens haven't really made good computers or laptops but they are now starting to come out with really good products from their Fujitsu ranges.
This is a amilo pro V3515, its looks stylish and is quite compact too. It features Intel Pentium Dual Core T2080 / 1.73 GHz processor which runs the 1gb of installed ram like a dream. Also if you use demanding programs and need more ram then this can be upgraded to a maximum of 2gb. This however if quite dear to do and could cost around £50.
This laptop has a great 120 GB hard drive to store all your data on, also it runs at 5400 rpm which is rather quick. A criticism to fujitsu would be that this laptop doesn't have a card reader built into it, this is something a lot of people need so i was disappointed to see it didn't contain one.
This amilo has a 15.4\" TFT active matrix screen which is smaller than some of the 17 inch screens previous amilo's have. However this could be a good point if you want a more portable laptop, so it really depends on how you look at it. The screen in its self is really good quality and for some reason all fujitsu amilo screens seem to be really good, this is great for watching movies on too. However a downside is the games, some newest games don't run as fast as they should and this can get really annoying so if you want a laptop specifically for gaming then just don't get this.
Another downside of amilos compared to other laptop brands is that there battery life is somewhat rubbish. I must say the like has improved however its still not so good seen as this one only lasts 2.5 hours and its got a small screen, compared to an acer travelmate which lasts 3.5 hours and has a 17 inch screen, so if you need something to last long then maybe look for a different laptop brand until fujitsu gets their batteries sorted out.
Well iv had my moan, but altogether I rated this 5 stars, why? Well this is just a great all rounder and you really couldn't ask for more in a laptop, apart from the things iv mentioned. however these don't bother me so much and its the best lap top iv had to date.

I have a fujitsu siemens laptop (but a much more expensive model) I agree that they make good laptops but the battery life is rubbish!
