Not at all, it was a time capsule problem and he didn't seem interested at all from the time he picked up the phone.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

makes a refreshing change when other manufacturers are copying Apple.

http://www.tested.com/news/apple-macbook-air-vs-intel-ultrabooks-five-thin-and-lights-compared/2833/

The prices are still very similar when you compare them the the Macbook Air. I still haven't seen one that I would buy over the MBA yet.

And alot of them are not even released yet.

Is that the metal Asus one?

I work for an IT disti and just did a big weekend truing sesh. Asus have got some good stuff coming out! The metal ultrabook they do is lovely! Also they've started doing some notebooks with subs underneath them and some with a plug in B and O speaker / sub setup.

Toshiba's ultrabook was nice too! And their 3d / high depth notebook was sweet!

And Acer have got a sweet sweet thing on their high end entertainment laptop - if you plug it in to a tv/ screen - the touchpad pops out and becomes a remote for the notebook!

Some good stuff coming out / about
