    Yeah I saw that. With a 6/10 they pretty much panned it due to battery life and the keyboard/track pad combo. I'll be interested to see whether the full size laptop performs any better.

    Is 3 hours of battery life in line with what other posters here with the machine have experienced?

    No need for an extra thread on this not very many of us in here as it is. Anyway I think they were a little hard on this ultrabook. And the score should of been a 7. They went to hard on the keyboard and battery life. I do average over 4 hours.

    And also I think the fact that in the 15 inch ultrabook range for this price and the fact that everything else sucks more besides going apple I would give this even higher marks. Bottomline this still beats any other pc ultrabook despite it's flaws in 15inch range. In 13inch there are more choices.
