In Pictures: The best new Ultrabooks

A wave of Ultrabooks -- light, thin laptops that have more capabilities and fewer compromises than ever -- is hitting the market. Here's a look at some of the current crop

Acer Aspire TimelineUltra M5-581TG-6666

The $829 TimelineUltra M5 is a little bigger and heavier than most Ultrabooks. Though it has excellent specs for its svelte form, its performance and its screen aren’t quite up to those of its predecessor, the TimelineUltra M3. But both the keyboard and the trackpad are comfortable to use, and audio was especially impressive, remaining loud and full-bodied at the highest volume setting. All in all, it’s a very good-looking ultraportable laptop.
