Samsung Series 9 Laptop Officially Priced

    Samsung has announced the price of their new 11.6 inch Series 9 laptop at $1,199. The base model comes with a 64 GB SSD, which is somewhat small for a laptop, but this is a sacrifice some buyers will likely be willing to make for ultra-portability. And ultra-portable is an apt description of this little laptop, with a thickness of only 0.63 inches and a weight of 2.31 pounds.
    The base model also comes with an Intel Core i3 processor and 2 GB of RAM. Unfortunately, the maximum amount of memory in this model is only 2 GB, meaning that no upgrades are possible in that area.
    This looks like the Series 9 is Samsung's answer to the MacBook Air. However, some deficiencies in the specs may push potential buyers to the Air. Preorder information can be found here.
