The Fujitsu LifeBook A6010's muted gray case looks so conservative that on first glance we mistook it for the business-friendly Dell Latitude D520. Despite its staid appearance, however, the LifeBook A6010 is no business machine; it runs on Windows XP Media Center Edition and, starting at $1,099 (our review unit is priced a bit higher), is competitively priced for the home user. The LifeBook A6010 does exhibit a few flaws--most notably, an undersize battery that can't power the system much beyond two hours--but its solid construction, gorgeous screen, and strong performance make it a decent, if not overly flashy, choice for consumers who want an inexpensive laptop for basic use inside their homes.
