Acer Aspire Timeline Ultra M3-581TG: The tech geek’s preview – Part 1

Not a long time ago, the moniker ‘Ultrabook’ was taken for laptops that boasted a small 13-inch screen, a very thin chassis, no optical drive and a low- to middle-end graphics card.

Acer Aspire Timeline Ultra M3-581TG: The tech geek’s preview – Part 2

The Timeline Ultra M3 has clean lines, a matte black plastic body, and an aluminum lid.

Acer Aspire Timeline Ultra M3-581TG: The tech geek’s preview – Part 3

Which one out of the slew of ultra-thin laptops should you buy? – Part 2

HP Folio 13 The HP Folio 13 is the best in the non-Apple products in terms of performance, price, and ergonomics, provided you can live with a less-than-razor-thin design.
