Samsung X360 in dogfight with Apple MacBook AIR
#3
This is a nice, little-compromise subnotebook. I consider the Air to be too much of a toy, not a real machine, for my personal taste.

I noticed over the weekend in a local ad for a Sony laptop for $799 - that had all the specs of a macbook plus a few nice features, and includes Sony's software version of iLife. I know, I know - it's not a mac. But with the integrated Sony digital imaging and related software that DOES work with the hardware, that machine is pretty much everything a macbook is - and at least $400 LESS than an equally configured Apple laptop.

I think Apple is counting on multi-touch to distinguish their hardware in the next couple years - the windows world has pretty much commoditized the best innovative features of our favorite Apple laptops.
