more interested in AMD efforts really, ultra books are way to expensive anyways! The US price drops seem to bring them down to a level which i would have like them to be originally . My latitude will suffice till AMD have upped their cpu efforts a bit more

Lenoco

Chinese copy perhaps?

Honestly im not interested unless they have a discreet GPU.

Lets hope it's a tough old Latitude... AMD are apparently all about the graphics, power draw and one chip thing, the CPU grunt is likely to stay weak against Intel for a while yet, maybe forever.

This. As much as I like the idea of a very slim, easy to carry lappy, I'm just waiting for that crossover when the APU's have enough umph to give a faster experience, I hate to wait.


cheers

Don't worry! Larabee is.. um.. yeah.

amd trinity.

As long as trinity makes its way to smaller form factors that is, i have brely seen any Llano laptops in comparison to the quantity of intel laptops. On top of that they are all really naff looking or have rubbish screens and features.

Fusion is the better product in paper and in tests but they need to present it in the marketplace better... a lot better

ultrabooks have not tickled my fancy as of yet, the samsung series has my interest though...
