An Asus ZenBook ultrabook for $650.

- 3200x1800 pixel screen!
- Core m2-6y30 processor (not that much crunch but low power)
- 8G RAM, 256G SSD
- no spinning parts (no fan, no HDD)

Price so good that I and others thought it might be an error.  It
still seems to be available online but not in-store at Yorkdale.

Hints for perfecting Kubuntu on this machine:
