Lenovo's U260 Ultraportable Notebook Now Available For $999

Lenovo has just released their latest notebook and it's the one that leaked last week. That's right, the IdeaPad U260 ultraportable notebook is available right now for as little as $999 - $100 more than expected. The base model features a 12.5-inch display (1,366 x 768 resolution), an Intel Core i3-380UM CPU, Intel HD graphics, 4GB of DDR3 RAM, a 320GB HDD, Bluetooth / WiFi support, a multitouch trackpad, an integrated webcam, and a chiclet keyboard. The body is just 0.7-inches and it only weighs 3 pounds. This is a bit chunkier than the MacBook Air but you get a bit more power with the same price tag if you can handle Windows 7. If you're willing to upgrade the CPU inside to a Core i5-470UM then the whole machine will cost you $1,099. Check it out on Lenovo if you're interested.
