In pictures: Acer Aspire S3 Ultrabook

Get up close and personal with the first Ultrabook to hit the Australian market, the Acer Aspire S3 (S3-951-2464G34iss)

The Acer Aspire S3 is the first Ultrabook to hit the Australian market and it looks rather nice. It's not a dead-ringer for the MacBook Air -- it's slightly thicker and more rounded, not to mention some other design characteristics -- but it feels just as solidly built, and most importantly, it's very light.
We've pictured it here with its power adapter, which is 95x50mm.
The configuration of our test model included an Intel Core i5-2467M CPU, 4GB of RAM, integrated Intel HD 3000 graphics and 320GB hard drive with an embedded solid state drive. Options include a 240GB solid state drive and Core i3 or Core i7 CPUs. Pricing starts from $1199 for a basic model.
