Samsung Notebooks finally hitting the US market

While we've had plenty of Samsung televisions, monitors, hard drives, and other electronics in the U.S., Samsung is desperate for a higher market share - enough to proclaim the death of their laptop division in 3 years unless it grows dramatically.

So they're expanding to the U.S. and other Euro markets.

"We should meet the target," claims Hong, explaining that a move into the US market and an as yet unnamed European country is expected to bring with it substantial sales growth.
Well, I do loves me some Samsung LCDs, but I'm not sure I'd jump to their laptops - I'm feeling a Sony vibe on over-priced and under-performing notebooks.

They can be pretty, though. Maybe I'll check one out when they hit the Best Buy.

im very pleased with Samsung in the last few years. they have proven to be a blue chip stock in the world of tech gadgets. they don't release something unless it is of quality and value. as soon as I get around to it, i'm buying their 27 or 30 LCD monitor because they look so good, are rated so highly and continue to be priced right. I hope this notebook takes the same directives from above.
