Toshiba Makes New Laptop Thinner Than MacBook Air

Toshiba will be offering a notebook claiming to be the thinnest one ever made to go up against the thin MacBook Air in November. The Portégé® Z830 Ultrabook will be their first ultraportable notebook and is just 0.63 inches thick and weighs 2.5 pounds.

Thinnest laptop from Toshiba

Portégé® Z830 Ultrabook Specs

  • OS: Windows 7 Home Premium or Professional
  • Display: 13.3 inches
  • Processor: Choose i3, i5, or i7
  • Memory: Up to 6GB
  • Hard Drive: 128 GB Solid State Drive
  • Ports: HDMI, VGA, USB
  • Features: Backlit and Spill Resistant Keyboard

 

Toshiba is trying to make this ultra thin laptop available for less than $1000, but hasn’t given a final price. The Portege Z830 may compete well with the MacBook Air if they can keep it below the $1000 mark. The only factor then will be if users prefer Windows or OS X.
