Recently received a Newsletter from ShoppingExpress and noticed the above deal for the Toshiba Ultrabook. Have previously bought a laptop from ShoppingExpress and from experience, this is a reliable seller with competitive pricing.
Have been looking around for an Ultrabook and to the best of my knowledge, $1,469 is a good price for the listed Toshiba ultrabook.
