Somebody suggested a Sony Vaio T series and my recent stroll at SM MOA revealed that I have to shell off P50k for that. Huh?! That much?!
That's when I was introduced to ultrabooks, an improved version of netbooks. My online search for the top 10 ultrabooks included the Sony Vaio T series as one of the most affordable unit but equipped only with the basic features as compared to other brands in the market.

And there's Toshiba. Over the years, it has maintained its reputation for being one of the top brands in the computer industry. My inquiry at SM Megamall Cyberzone trimmed down my choice between Portege Z930-2002 and Satellite U840W-1000 which, by the way, are priced at P69,990 and P54,990, respectively. Both contains 3rd generation processor and Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium. I don't know exactly what that heck means, but as explained to me by the sales rep, it is summed up in 4 words, "it is the latest".

Which leads me to the more expensive Toshiba ultrabook, the Portege Z930-2002. It weighs only at around 1.2kgs. I guess the lightest ultrabook one can find in the market. However, online reviews disclosed that due to its weight, it is still considered as fragile despite it being advertised as durable. Hmm.. :(
