Will there be a manufacture that will make: QHD+ (non touch), Intel everything (graphics, NIC), ultrabook body, I5-I7 with at-least 8GB of memory and hit the price point of 1000USD?
- baddox 13y agoNon-touch seems like it's becoming less and less common with Windows laptops. I imagine Microsoft has been pushing pretty hard for it since Windows 8.
- JoshTriplett 13y agoI don't even care about that price point either, I'd just like that feature set, a and mouse buttons. Far too many new laptops are putting in buttonless clickpads, which might work fine if you only need one mouse button but which are unusable if you use three. My ideal laptop would be the ThinkPad 9 Slim (13", 3200x1800), with its TrackPoint, but with actual buttons to go with the TrackPoint. Or, to look at that another way: the X1 Carbon with a 3200x1800 or better screen.
- DSingularity 13y agoProbably not. Intel charges a large premium for its crystal-well parts. Here are tray prices: http://ark.intel.com/products/codename/51802/Crystal-Well http://ark.intel.com/products/codename/51802/Crystal-Well Im sure they get discounts... but how much can it be?

- tadfisher 13y agoWhat? 1920x1080 is nowhere near QHD+.
- JoshTriplett 13y agoThat one is only 1080p.
