It was but a few weeks ago that we caught Fujitsu’s LifeBook N6460 showing off in Singapore, and now it looks like the beastly machine has made its way stateside for all of us Americans to enjoy. This 17-incher touts an XGA+ panel, Intel’s 2GHz Core 2 Duo T7300 CPU, ATI’s Mobility Radeon HD 2600 graphics set, 2GB of DDR2 RAM, up to 400GB of hard drive space, an optional Blu-ray drive, integrated fingerprint scanner, a remote control, 56k modem, gigabit Ethernet, WiFi, and a plethora of ports including five USB 2.0 connectors, FireWire, a multicard reader, and an ExpressCard opening to boot. Granted, you can certainly opt to customize the aforementioned specifications to fit your budget, but pre-established configurations range from $1,499 to $2,599 and look to be shipping right away.

It’d probably be tough to find anyone eying an ultralight laptop that hasn’t given either the S2210 or P7230 (pictured after the jump) at least a glance, but just in case you’re only moments away from pulling the trigger on either, you might want to reconsider. Unfortunately, it sounds like both of Fujitsu’s latest LifeBooks underperformed in the areas that mattered most, and as PCMag put it, shoving a full-fledged PC (with an integrated optical drive, no less) into a three- to four-pound frame requires quite a few tradeoffs. Reviewers found the choice of processors somewhat necessary considering the tight spaces, but the sluggish performance within Vista was irritating to say the least. Additionally, upgraded machines tended not to be good values, as boosting the RAM, hard drive capacity, and optical drive drove the price “beyond the reach” of most business laptop customers. Still, the highly portable nature of both machines is impossible to knock, so if you’re willing to be a tad more patient whilst working, and don’t mind unusually small keyboards, both machines should handle whatever you throw at it — albeit at its own lethargic pace.
