New Fujitsu laptop is more expensive than Mercedes
28 March 2007Fujitsu has produced two laptops with the flash-memory instead of a hard disk. Ultracompact laptops with touchscreen LifeBook P1610 and B6210 are intended for use in spheres of public health services and aircraft. The reliable flash-drive without moving parts will help to keep the data in different adverse conditions.
Laptops LifeBook P1610 and B6210 already exist in modification with a hard disk from 30 up to 80 GB. The flash-drive, in spite of its smaller volume (from 16 up to 32 GB), will help to reduce noise, weight, power consumption, time of loading and access to the data, has declared Paul Moore, Fujitsu mobile production manager.
Novelties from Fujitsu are made, first of all, for corporate customers whom data safety and other advantages of flash-drives are important. 16 GB flash-memory will add to the laptop’s cost 700 US dollars, and 32 GB will cost 1200 dollars. Fujitsu does not parade full cost as they are made only on demand.
“It is cheaper to buy Mercedes SL, than 200 GB a flash-disk today. But we expect fast landslide of prices for flash-disks as it was with USB-drives�? - told Paul Moore.
