    The ultrabook market is becoming increasingly competitive every weak. After this Christmas season, it is hard for me to understand how hybrid ultrabook solutions are still above $699.99. This ultrabook has some great features but without touchscreen it will be hard to compete with some of the Samsung and Acer ultrabooks in big-box retail stores at least within the North American market. With the cost of SSD storage solutions decreasing monthly, I often cannot justify the costs of ultrabooks with hybrid storage solutions.
