Welcome to the Arima Homepage on MacDat!

Arima was a Taiwan-based Original Design Manufacturer (ODM) that produced laptop computers. They were a medium-sized ODM, with their laptops being sold by brands including IPC/Austin, AMS Tech, Ergo, Unisys, and others. It appears that Arima made laptops into at least 2007. Arima is still in business, but they sold their laptop division to Flextronics International in 2008. They currently manufacture solar power equipment.
