Fujitsu LifeBook P7230 Notebook Review
With a chic design, the Limited Pink Edition LifeBook P7230 Notebook is a functional fashion statement blending portability and power.
The LifeBook P7230 notebook is a unique, full featured ultra portable system with a built-in bay. The LifeBook P7230 notebook is the ultimate travel companion weighing as little as 2.63 lbs and offering an integrated 1.3 mega pixel webcam for enhanced communication
The LifeBook P7230 weighs less than three pounds with a slim 1.17-inch silhouette and it has a 10.6-inch bright Crystal View wide screen display. It is also safe to say that the LifeBook P7230 notebook is one of the industry's smallest and lightest full-featured notebooks with a built-in media bay.
If you prefer a more classic look, the LifeBook P7230 notebook is also available with a leather black chassis. The LifeBook P7230 notebook comes with the Intel Core Duo U2500 Ultra Low Voltage Processor for advanced mobile performance, as well as the energy-efficient Intel Core Solo U1400.
The LifeBook P7230 notebook combines performance with portability offering a built-in modular bay that accepts a Dual-Layer Multi-Format DVD Writer, weight-saver module or second battery that delivers up to nine hours of computing time for extra long workdays. Battery life is also extended with the Fujitsu ECO button, a proprietary power-saving mode that with a single press reduces power consumption for components, including disabling the optical disk drive and reducing the display brightness.
The LifeBook P7230 notebook comes with the Windows Vista Home Premium operating system and is equipped with an LED-lit Crystal View XGA TFT wide format display offering 16 million colors for a rich and vibrant viewing experience. Digital dual array built-in microphones and dual built-in stereo speakers offer outstanding audio. Furthermore, the optional built-in 1.3 MP webcam, centered above the display for comfortable video calls and conferences while on the road, is now provided at no additional charge.
The LifeBook P7230 notebook also features an integrated biometric fingerprint swipe sensor, an embedded Trusted Platform Module, which can store data file passwords and keys on a microchip, and a security lock slot.
Your hard drive is protected by Fujitsu Shock Sensor utility which is a sophisticated accelerometer-based hard drive protection system that retracts the hard drive head if a sudden movement or vibration is detected, reducing the possibility of a head crash and potential loss of data. The sensor can also be set to password-lock the system if it is touched, preventing unauthorized access to the data.
