One-year warranty not so hot... If you can live with a 20 gig hard drive and 128 megs of RAM, swell LifeBook S can be had for $1,499. A few years back, an ultralight with a 13.3 inch active matrix XGA screen, a 20 GB hard drive, and 1 GB processor would have come in north of $2,000 -- and we mean way north. Sled dog kind of north...
Good sign: more we used LifeBook, more we liked it. If you don't need to take your computer out of the office a whole lot -- or your commuter line is more spacious than Metro North -- this is probably the best bet in the buyer's guide.
(Editor's Note: Thin is in for notebook computers, but how about the computer makers themselves — how much cash do they keep on hand? See for yourself with the CFO PeerMetrix interactive scorecards.)
