    Nice! The ULV SB line is going to cut into some of the higher end Zacate builds, I guess...

    maybe the x120e will be AMD Fusion, and the X121e becomes Intel ULV?

    Which would be better the Intel or the AMD?

    Performance-wise and battery-wise, the Intel. The AMD may beat out the Intel in GPU-bottlenecked applications where a weak CPU does not make much of a difference, but overall, the Intel i3 will come out on top.

    Price-wise, the AMD Fusion version will definitely be cheaper.

    Way too expensive for what it offers.

    the X121e use lot of design elements (i.e. hinge and battery design) from the Ideapad S10-2.

    X121e will have both Intel and AMD CPU options.
