Ultrabook for $799 - you have another 24 hours
The Catch of the Day website has an entry-level Acer Aspire S3 Ultrabook for $799, but you only have until noon tomorrow, Thursday (Australian Eastern time) to grab it.
This online-only special at
Catch of the Day expires in less than 24 hours, but it’s definitely one of the lowest Ultrabook prices we've come across so far. It's for an entry-level Acer Aspire S3-951-2364G34iss. This Ultrabook uses a low-voltage 2nd Gen Intel Core i3 along with a mechanical hard disk drive (supported by a caching solid state drive). While the overall package is not as snappy as SSD-only Ultrabooks, it still largely delivers the Ultrabook experience of insanely portable computing, and at this price, who can complain? The Acer also has a pleasing all-metal exterior and a pair of USB 2.0 ports and a full-sized HDMI port. The downside, is, that the special will come down tomorrow (Thursday) at noon.
