Advantages: You get to really struggle with the Mic settings. Disadvantages: Trying to get the Mic. to work reallt takes up all your free time
...I am connected to Skype but cannot get the Microphone to work properly on my Fujitsu E8020D which is 2 weeks old as at 12 August 2006. The driver detects the Microphone being plugged in but the Mic does not work properly.
If anyone knows how to solve this problem, please contact me at hfester@vodamail.co.za
What bothers me most is that when I contacted the company whom I bought this laptop from ( Annex in Midrand South Africa), they told me they do not offer support. So much for offering 3 YEARS warranty and they cannot even offer me support 2 weeks later. DISGUSTING.
Yet the 3 identical laptops which is approx 6 months old works fine except for the 3 purchaed within the last 2 months.
Please email me if anyone knows how to solve this problem.
Thank you

fab laptop Review ofFujitsu Siemens AMILO Pro V3515 Edition - Pentium Dual Core T2080 1.73 GHz - 15.4" TFTby

Advantages: great speeds Disadvantages: not alot of extra features
...laptop looks really good, it's a combination of black and silvery white plastic body and this two tone colour makes it look really cool and modern.
It features a Intel Pentium Dual Core T2080 / 1.73 Ghz processor which runs the 1gb of ram very well, and you'll be surprised at quite how fast this is, maybe its just how fujitsu makes their laptops, but this with only 1gb of ram seems a lot faster than some of the other brands of laptop iv come across which also had 1gb of ram installed.
Another good thing about this is that the 1gb of ram can be upgraded to 2gb, however this is quite pricy and will usually cost over £50. However if you do need more ram and a quicker laptop all round then this might be something to think about.
This laptop contains what seems to be the bear minimum of hard drive space these days. It has 80 gb which is quite...

Experience Of Support Review ofFujitsu Siemens AMILO M-6300 - C 1.2GHz - 14.1" TFTby

Advantages: Confusing call qualification / Information repeated several times Disadvantages: Once the call had been logged and agreed the repair was turned around very quickly
...After recently having a problem with A Fujitsu laptop which was still in warranty I recently contacted Fujistu to arrange to have the machine looked at.
The problem with the machine appeared to be that the cable connecting the screen had fractured and needed replacing.
After navigating the Support call system and speaking to several people regarding this fault we appeared to travel full circle and go back to the beginning explaining the fault and symptoms.
Fujitsu seem to have a good support infrastructure and policy in place which just needs some fine tuning.
They need to ensure that all information is relayed as required, and to appreciate that the users placing the call have different levels of experience. (Being a support specialist, you resent being told that the fault is user error and to check the obvious even though you have...
