^^ The Vaio TZ costs around the same. If I'm not mistaken this is cheaper than that.

Thats because Acer Inspiron and Dell XPS laptops are targeted at value concious and performance concious buyers respectively. They therefore HAVE to give enough horsepower.

Laptops like Macintoshes, and these high priced ultra portables on the other hand are targeted at a totally different audience. Here, price does not matter.

You are forgetting the fact that it's not typical "HP", It's "Voodoo".

Reports say that this one's using Intel's custom-built, 65-nm processor first unveiled in Apple's MacBook Air

The bottom side of this laptop looks extremely ugly but the black edition looks downright sexy.
