More Fujitsu Notebooks

There were two notable notebooks at the event that recently entered the market, the A3110 and the N6420. These notebooks are notably equipped with more powerful graphics solutions and feature very well integrated speakers to handle multimedia better than an average notebook. The A3110 also sports a funkier and more consumer friendly appeal with dashes of clinical white (ala Apple white). This is in contrast to the usual gray and black which have been synonymous with Fujitsu - until now.

The A3110 is targeted at mainstream users and comes with an AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-50 processor. Priced at US$1032 / White: US$1097 (~ S$1,588 / White: ~ S$1,688), the A3110 is truly a deal.
