Results obtained from Ziff Davis (BusinessWinstone 2001) Battery Mark V4.0.1. Actual battery life will vary based on screen brightness, sound volume settings, running applications, connected peripherals, power management settings, battery conditioning, and other customer preferences. DVD or hard drive usage may also have a significant impact on battery life.
Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT) dynamically responds to application requirement and efficiently allocates the proper amount of memory (max. 64MB) for optimal graphics and system performance. The memory size available to the Operating System will be less than the size of installed memory module.
Maximum 56Kbps performance varies according to your local service providers' services as well as line condition. V.92 performance is dependent on local service providers' services.
This term does not represent actual data rate of 1000/100/10Mbps and simply indicates compliance with IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.3u and IEEE 802.3ab standards. Actual maximum data rate depends on network configurations, cable conditions as well as connected devices.
This term does not represent actual data rate of 4Mbps and simply indicates compliance with IrDA standard specification 1.1. Actual maximum data rate depends on local configurations and connected devices.
Smart Card support requires a Smart Card adapter for the PC Card Slot. This is available as an accessory. Fujitsu does not provide the application for Smart Card Solution.
BIOS Lock needs a supervisor/user password to access BIOS setup. BIOS settings can be configured to prompt for password at every first bootup or all bootup sequences. Access to BIOS setup is needed to configure Hard Disk Lock. Hard Disk Lock requires an access key to retrieve data on the hard disk. This is a Data Confidentiality security feature. LifeBook Lock requires a supervisor/user password to bootup the LifeBook when it powers up or resumes last session from suspend/hibernate mode. This is an anti-theft feature with more than 800,000 password combinations using the buttons on the Quick Launch Panel. Anti-theft Lock Slot allows the use of a lock to physically secure the LifeBook.
Smart Card usage is dependent on customer's solution. Full security unlock sequence - LifeBook Lock, Bootup Lock (BIOS Lock), Hard Disk Lock. NOTE: Loss of password requires the LifeBook to be returned to Japan factory for system refresh. Cost of shipment and loss data will be borne by the customer.


It is natural for all thin-film transistor (TFT) liquid crystal displays (LCD) to show a small number of missing or discoloured dots. These are commonly known as non-conforming pixels. This is a technology limitation of TFT LCD and does not represent a defect. Fujitsu warranty does not cover limitations in technology such as non-conforming pixels.

Specifications reflected above are engineering and hardware specifications. They do not represent actual usage or operating dimensions, sizes, performances and weights as these are dependent on factors such as operating temperature, type of operating system and application used, connected devices and accessories as well as hardware configurations of the notebook.

How much? I'd be inclined to get the S6210 if you can afford it. They're under $1500 now.

If thats a base model S6100Series, I say go with the S6210, newer design, and much faster then the old one

Newegg has the S6210 for around $1300 new. Wait till the weekend and they give an extra discount and free shipping usually. This is the best deal anywhere right now for this notebook that I could find. Heres the link:
