On: Ask HN: Shall I buy an 'ultrabook' or a MB Air?

[whiskers]

I absolutely love my MacBook Air. I run it exclusively in Lion but have virtual machines for Ubuntu and Windows when I need it.

The build is amazing, the battery life very good for its size, and I really like the keyboard and screen (though that's probably a personal taste choice).

For £1099 (including taxes) I haven't seen anything else that I'd want to swap to.

What about this Toshiba?

I checked this out in store, very cheap feeling.
