...Most people looking for a laptop will have an idea that the speed of a machine in MHz or GHz will have a direct impact on performance. True, but if you take this to the extreme like a lot of people and base your buying choice on ourely speed, you may fall into the V7010s trap.
The Celeron D CPU in this laptop runs at a smooth 2.53GHz, which will certainly appeal to a lot of people on paper. But be in for a surprise when you power the machine on for the first time....
To me the Fujitsu felt slower than my Compaq Armada M700 running at 1GHz with only 128MB of RAM, although both of them ran XP Home Edition.
The speed is only the first shortcoming of the V7010, as you will find out shortly.
Everything looks bright and rosy on paper - 40GB 'Fast' IDE Hard Disk, ATI IGP 9000 Graphics, Celeron D 2.53GHz CPU... but when you try...

...the house. or maybe in the back gardens, and conecting to wirless networks through this cimputer couldnt be mre simpler.
This laptop is not all that great for gaming and multimedia as it only comes with 64mb of graphics which is a real down side. is fine to view HD pictures on.
the laptop comes with a 15.4 inch widescreen display which isnt all that bright, fujitsu should have improved the screen quality here!
the general look of the laptop isnt all that bas, although the silver scratches very easily, which is a very dowside.
overall i would reconment this laptop for persons only looking to use it for personal and everynow and then use, i wouldnt recoment it to perople who are into gaming or heavy computer users....

This laptop has been selling pretty cheaply at Ebuyer recently.
I'd like to say a few things that I feel are important to know about this laptop before buying it.
Firstly, the spec is more than up to running 95% of programs in common use today.... more
Over the past few months my son (14) and my daughter (10) have both become increasingly interested in the computer. They are both very much into BEBO and MSN and my son is using the computer more and more for his schoolwork. This is now causing no end... more
This is a good example of a mid-range, mid-price lap top that will do what you need it to do, without over-spec-ing for the ordinary user, and costing more than you need to pay.
I have had a couple of Fujitsus - one I was very happy with til some... more
