Mitsubishi Launches Lightweight Notebook, Weighs Just 996g

Yes you read it right, they actually did it, engineers at Mitsubishi Electric have fit a 20 GB HDD, 256MB RAM and a Pentium M 753 (1.2GHz) into an alloy casing that weighs in only 996 grams, about 35 ounces. The press release did not give any detail on the screen size or screen resolution, they just skipped that part, so you'll have to wait for reviews and comparisons. This latest addition to the Apricot series has already cornered everyone's attention with its pretty silver casing and less than 1000 gm weight but a heavy price tag of $2080.
