> Someone at Samsung is really dropping the ball and I hope they're shown the door soon
Amen brother. It's astonishing to me that so much of what Apple creates is actually made by Samsung, and yet they constantly seem so far behind.
Have you seen their new 15" Ultrabooks though? They are awesome. 15" screen and weighs more than a pound less than the new MBP (obviously, with tradeoffs)
The link is to a (supposedly) 15" model, even if the page title says 14". Specs do say 15".
Biggest tradeoff being the Samsung has a low voltage (slow) dual core vs a full speed quad core plus a massive GPU. I don't think we'll see anything much lighter than the Macbook just due to the need to vent the heat. It's considerably lighter than any other quad I know of.
Yes, they messed up the title. It is a 15" Ultrabook. I've seen it in person and it's fantastic. Obviously, it is more like a 15" MBA than a 15" MBP, but my point in posting the link is that Samsung seems to be doing some cool stuff.
