My dad lives in singapore and sent me a list of laptops his computer guy sent him. They all had Core i7s and platter hard drives and weighed a ton with mediocre battery life.
All my dad wants is a light laptop with good battery life to email people and surf the web on. He doesn't care about hard drive space or the graphics card. The spec lists were long and confusing.
I compared it to the Macbook Air I just bought. It was cheaper than the options he sent, lighter than the options he sent and had an SSD. It will do everything he needs and wants from his laptop better than the other options.
Then I saw this zenbook. It seems to be pretty similarly specced and is targeted at the windows market. Hopefully he can hold out until they have it there, or pick one up in the US. Kudos to the rest of the manufacturers for competing with the Macbook Air.
