Reviews of the Fujitsu LifeBook P7230 (Core Solo 1.2GHz, 1GB RAM, 60GB HDD, Vista Business)

CNET Review
The Good: The Fujitsu LifeBook P7230 has an attractive design; it's lightweight; an Eco button lets you easily drop into low-power mode to extend battery life; includes optical drive.
The Bad: Single-core processor means performance is limited; very small mouse buttons are annoying; 10.6-inch screen is smaller than that of most other ultraportables.
The Bottom Line: A sleek-looking ultraportable, the Fujitsu LifeBook P7230 will turn heads with its polished design, but its middling performance make it suited best for basic office tasks.
