LIFEBOOK E8010: supreme full size notebook

- Comfort and performance for business customers: modular, secure, ergonomic

The LIFEBOOK E8010 is Fujitsu Siemens Computers’ feature-rich, secure notebook with desktop-like performance. The system comes equipped with a 15-inch display, and a great graphics solution for excellent viewing and an optional, external graphic. A flexible modular bay concept enables the system to use a large variety of different options. Starting in June, this powerful platform will be available featuring the new Intel Pentium M Processor (codenamed Dothan).
 
According to IDC, the demand for high-performance notebooks at large enterprises is set to increase by 13 percent over the next two years (IDC, 02/2004). The LIFEBOOK E8010 targets precisely this market, and is also well placed to interest small and mid-sized companies as well as freelancers.
 
Available in different configurations, the LIFEBOOK E8010 is based on Intel® Centrino™ Mobile Technology, which together with the latest recharging technology and an optional second battery, ensures long cable-free operation. For the graphics card, users can choose between integrated i855GME graphics (shared memory) and separate ATI-Radeon 9700 graphics with 64 MB VRAM on board. Two 15.1-inch TFT displays are available: a 1024 x 768 pixel XGA and 1400 x 1050 pixels SXGA+.
 
There are numerous ports for peripheral components located directly on the LIFEBOOK E8010, and it also comes with the latest b/g standard compatible WLAN. Bluetooth can also be integrated, while additional devices can be connected via a Port Replicator that is also compatible with the LIFEBOOK S7010. The modular bay concept offers customers a wealth of flexibility to add different optical drives, a second hard disk drive or an extra battery on demand, and the same bay module can be used with the entire family of contemporary modular LIFEBOOK models.
 
LIFEBOOK E Series models come preinstalled with Microsoft Windows XP Professional. The accompanying DeskView system management software developed by Fujitsu Siemens Computers helps to reduce the total cost of ownership. The security panel, an integrated SmartCard controller and a Trusted Platform Module TPM, which is available via “made4you” customizing services, identify the computer in the network and ensure secure authentication and data protection.
