Comment on Ask HN: Why doesn't anyone make a laptop like the Cr-48?

Comments

Not sure if you can still get it but about a year ago I bought an Asus U56E. I think I paid about $700 for it at the time (probably pick it up cheaper now) and I think it matches what you're looking for.

Good design, high quality construction, higher-end construction materials (aluminum chassis), etc..

It's probably a little larger than what you're looking for if the Cr-48 is your preferred size.

I could deal with a 15.6" computer if it meant decent resolution, but more 1366x768? Really, Asus?

Aside from that, it looks promising. I'm seeing it for about $400 at a couple places.
