Fujitsu's M2010 is a 10.1-inch Windows XP netbook, based on Intel's 1.6 GHz Atom N270 processor and 945GSE chipset, with a 160GB HDD, 1GB of RAM, a 3-cell battery, a 1.3MP webcam and an integrated multi-card reader. Familiar, no?
That's what's so curious about the M2010—it really strikes me as just another netbook, and a somewhat late one at that. It's attractive, sure, but similarly-styled to the Aspire One, and certainly not flat-out gorgeous like the ASUS Seashell.
Stranger still is its price, which at $449 sits about $50-$100 above direct, functionally equivalent competitors from the likes of Dell, ASUS and Acer. PC Mag tested one, and confirmed as much, though they did compliment its bright, vivid screen and tasteful styling. Full specs below:
