screen quality is poor on Fujitsu-Siemens compared to Toshiba and Sony..... if i was in the market for a new laptop they would not be in my thoughts for any price bracket.
Hate the look, the feel, the build quality.... cant say much positive about them in fact

2nd on my short list was the samsung Q35 seems to have done well in reviews and this is a more powerful version..........less RAM than the 1st one though.

cf18 is used by the frames guys, swivell screen and some i think are touchscreen.

id say it was too small, the cf29 is much better but its hardly as portable as some.

its actually heavier than the cf27 but much better computer all in.
