Cons:

Well, I bought this mode from Fry's Electronics about two months ago from today. Low-and-behold, the keyboard stopped working about two weeks ago. I sent it back to a(n) authorized Fujitsu repair center and the repairman thought it was a keyboard error. Only to find out it was a motherboard error all together. This is really a hit and miss, however, to pay $1500 for a laptop the consumer should at least have the opportunity to get his/her money back or exchange the item all together for a different model. When call Fujitsu tech support they will not replace a notebook unless the repair cost is not cost efficient. Be careful before you buy a product from Fujitsu. You might want to go with an Apple. Many people are making the switch. Good luck.
