Fantastic ultrabook. Fantastic price. Stupid name for a sale. It's Black Friday II.
The laptop was $619.99 but with the $220 discount, you only pay $599.99. This laptop is a great mid-range ultrabook, sporting a 3rd Gen Core i5 processor at 1.7GHz, 6GB DDR3 RAM, 750GB HDD, 24GB SSD and a 1GB NVIDIA GeForce 610M Video Card. A very respectable system for only $600.
Another thing this computer has that some people might not like, is Windows 8. I recently got a computer with Windows 8 and I was not looking forward to it. I actually had my Windows 7 disk ready to go when I got the laptop. But I turned it on just to give Windows 8 a try. After all, I am a big nerd and as such I should know all the technology I can. So I poked around a bit and, much to my surprise, I really like Windows 8. Go figure, eh? I think the reason I like it is because I am no longer practicing at being 133t. I've become boring in my old age. Soft and doughy. Now I play Angry Birds and look at "eCards" on Facebook. I don't need much else than that so the Windows 8 interface works fine for me. If you are "the 133t HaxXxorZ" then you might not be a fan of the new interface but if you are truly 133t, you'll find a way around it.
