Ever since Intel announced ultrabook, ultrabook become one of the most talk about laptop replacement for Windows operating computer. Every PC or Consumer Electronics or any exhibition, I am sure you will see computer manufacturers like HP, Asus, Acer, Lenovo, Dell and so on are show casing ultrabook. Since Apple's product is much more expensive than PC, I am still going to buy non-Apple product when I am going to change my laptop.
Since most of the parts on laptop are custom made, repairing would not be so easy, except CPU, RAM, and hard disk. I wrote an article on how to recycle the hard disk from a broken laptop:

So how does inside of an ultrabook looks like? Here is an teardown of Asus Zenbook UX32VD, one of recent good work of iFixIt.

Ultrabook
At last CES at Las Vegas recently, ultrabook is everywhere and every PC manufacturers. Even though I am not using ultrabook yet, but the Sandybridge platform on my HP Elitebook 8460p can make my happy enough. Why? Because:
1. on wired network, it can last up to 7 hours of normal surfing and office works with stock battery only (not the extended battery)
2. on wifi network, it can last up to 5 hours of normal surfing and office works with stock battery only (not the extended battery)
It is still a distant to the 9.5hours of iPad2. But does iPad2 really last that long on single charge on wifi? Nobody bother to verify that now right? Can't you sit at Starbucks for 9.5hours? :P
Here is quite brilliant ads from HP on it's ultrabook. Yes, it is normal to see people sitting at awkward spot at StarBucks, McD, airport, and many more, not that they are nerd, but they just want to charge the laptop, pre-sandybridge laptop to be exact. I don't have the problem if I bring my sandybridge laptop but I haven't try it out at airport honestly because I don't want to bring laptop to my vacation.
Vacation should be free of gadget, okay, just the smartphone and tablet. No? Okay, just the smartphone, I still need that to show the 2D barcode to print boarding pass.
