Title: First Linux Ultrabook priced like the Windows version
Post by: bobito on Sep 08, 2012, 07:28 PM
The UltraLap is the first laptop that ships with Linux and could fall under Intel's Ultrabook platform specs. The base model features a 14.1-inch, 1,366x768 LED-backlit screen, Intel Core i3-3217U processor, Intel HD 4000 integrated graphics, 4GB of RAM, 32GB solid state drive, and your choice of Linux flavor: Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Edubuntu, Debian, Linux Mint, or Fedora (or no OS pre-installed at all). If the base model isn't powerful enough for you, you can upgrade to a Core i5-3317U CPU for $49, 8GB or 16GB of RAM, a larger SSD and/or a hard drive, and additional warranty protection beyond the standard one year.

For those who are "linux fans" are probably happy about the launch of the first linux ultrabook but does the cost sound reasonable ? may be not for the true fans.
