    i have to disagree with an article i read on mobilemag.com i'll paste the link below

    http://www.mobilemag.com/content/100/355/C7053/

    in my opinion the asus w5f is the first smallest notebook with duo core. they don't even have the price and availability for the samsung notebook. and the w5f is already out and priced. What's the deal?

    Maybe it's not physically "smaller" than the W5F.. but perhaps a little bit lighter. Who knows... I agree that the W5F is pretty much the same size, but keep in mind that the W5F also has a built-in webcam at the top of the screen...which makes it marginally a little "bigger"

    If the questin regards which is smaller, you're right; The W5F is about 0.2 pounds lighter, with the same screen size.

    .... don't worry the S6 is ready to go (should be here by summer), but that's a core duo with an 11" widescreen - it runs about 3 pounds....

    the Q35 is only a refresh of the Q30. They both have the same frame
