Lenovo's CULV laptop, the IdeaPad U350
Who needs a netbook with a small screen, cramped keyboard, and lackluster performance when you can get a 13.3-inch CULV for $449?
Lenovo’s IdeaPad U350 is a 3.5 lb, 0.9-inch thin Consumer Ultra Low Voltage (CULV) notebook with a 13.3-inch 16:9 LCD. It has a full-size keyboard, multitouch touchpad, three USB ports, and even HDMI output. Unfortunately it lacks an ExpressCard/34 slot for expansion, but that’s the price you pay for a chassis that seems thinner than 0.9-inches.
Lenovo is taking $100 instantly off the regular $699 price, but is also offering a very limited $150 stackable coupon. This coupon is only good for 200 uses and probably won’t last more than a couple days, so jump on this if you’re in the market. Keep in mind you can use the coupon on any of the U350 configs, but the $449 one (below) isn’t bad at all.
- Pentium SU2700 1.3GHz; 2GB DDR3; 13.3″ HD WXGA LED

This is a 1366×768 screen and I think the term WXGA refers to 1280×800. I get this is 117.83 dpi, a little bit lower than a 12.1″ 1280×800 screen at 124.75 dpi. I still want more pixels.
