| Bottom line | When it comes to Windows ultrabooks, the
HP Folio 13 is the best of the bunch in terms of performance, price, and ergonomics, provided you can live with a less-than-razor-thin design. This laptop is targeted at small businesses but it's really for anyone who wants a reliable ultrabook that isn't a MacBook Air. | While it's not going to dazzle anyone, the Toshiba Satellite U845T is a great example of exactly how much laptop $799 should buy in 2013. | This year's
MacBook Air opts for gradual improvements rather than anything revolutionary, but lowered prices continue to make it the go-to mainstream recommendation for any MacBook owner-to-be. | Considering the total package of features and price, the Acer Aspire M5 feels like a safe bet if you want an all-encompassing
Windows 8 laptop with touch that won't cost a fortune. |
