    Anyone got any experience with these? Japanese market only, apparently, but the specs and form-factors are downright bonkers.

    Let's Note SZ, the 12.1-incher with proper 4:3 aspect ratio (1920*1200 like God intended it), Kaby Lake U-series cpus, weighing 929g:

    Let's Note RZ, 10.1", 4:3 aspect ratio, 2-in-1 form factor. Core M cpus, passively cooled, 745g of awesomeness:

    Let's Note RX, 14" @ 1080p resolution, weight from 1295g

    Gotta say I wouldn't mind me some SZ or RZ action the next time I find myself in Akihabara with a bit of time (and Yen) to spend.

    Yes I have owned a few over the years. they are awesome machines! They can be a pain in the ass to get drivers from the Let's Note site though. My Japanese is a little rusty ;) There are always a few on eBay for decent prices...of course "decent" is relative...
