Fujitsu Launched new personal computers for the elderly, its latest "Raku-Raku" or "easy-easy" model equipped with a Japanese character input system for the touchpanel screen. Users can start with a simple menu screen tailored to the needs of senior citizens, while a troubleshooter key allows them to jump to a special Web site and other navigators to obtain necessary information.
The keyboards have both Japanese and English characters, while the mouse's right button is made with textured plastic to make it easier to press. The computers are specially designed to be compatible with Fujitsu's mobile phones also for the elderly with a large, crisp display and one- touch Internet access.
Users can easily send pictures from the phones to the new computers through a special cartridge.
