    ....but it died on me...I just recieved the laptop yesterday from newegg, threw my normal programs on, began surfing the net, and all of a sudden blue screen of death (with a pink square) and it shut off. Repeatedly tried to turn it on, but it was as if it keeps resetting every 2 seconds; fan comes on and off lights flicker, screen doesnt even come on. Just got an RMA this morning so im overnighting it to Fujitsu for repair...hopefully this isnt a common issue?

    Would certainly hope not. But it's hard to tell as the 3530 is a very new model and yours is the first report I've seen of one going belly up. I'm still waiting on mine to come from Fujitsu, so I'll keep my fingers crossed. Hope Fujitsu takes care of you. Good luck!
