IIRC Fujitsu bought out the Siemens half of the Fujitsu-Siemens joint venture a couple of years back.  Probably kept on the lifebook brand.

Spec looks ok, but isn't lifebook siemens?

Have a feeling the local tescos were doing a tosh with similar spec for that money. I know what I would chose

Thanks TB - Would this be better than the one i listed before?

6hr battery life seems a tad optimistic, but decent spec for the price  :y
That's not really an optimistic figure these days, my Tosh cracks the 7 hour barrier with ease.

It is indeed Siemens, and like you I know where my money would go as well.

Aye, thats more like it IMHO, if you can tolerate the size of it (its quite wide, bu thats the current trend).

If buying from Dabs, go via a cashback site (if not a member of any cashback sites, try my referral link - http://www.topcashback.co.uk/ref/theboy - I get £7.50 after you've saved your first fiver :y)
