Fujitsu Siemens is offering buyers of its latest LifeBook laptops a free, new laptop every three years for the rest of their lives. The manufacturer is also offering buyers of its Esprimo notebooks and desktops free repairs and a full refund if their systems fail during the standard warranty period.
The 'LifeBook4Life' programme, aimed at both business and consumer customers, was announced on Wednesday. According to Paul Hoey, Fujitsu Siemens UK's product marketing chief, the idea is to promote the "complete confidence" the manufacturer has in the quality and reliability of its systems.
"LifeBook4Life is quite simply our way of showing customers that we value their business and their loyalty and ensuring that, providing they have been happy with what their LifeBook has delivered over those first three years, they have no reason to switch to any other vendor," Hoey said in Wednesday's statement.
Wireless smartphone maker Palm Inc. said Monday it is cutting its work force and consolidating offices, and expects second quarter revenue in the range of $190 million to $195 million and restructuring costs of $7 million to $9 million.
American Musical Theatre of San Jose said Monday that it has closed its operations and will file Chapter 7 bankruptcy this week.
