mid range laptop, probably ultrabook

[hr_sto]

Is there an affordable AMD FX-8800P ultrabook? I'm looking mostly for the best price/performance ratio.

I could be wrong, but I think all ultrabooks require an Intel cpu to be considered an ultrabook. "Powered by Intel"

Yeah, no AMD laptop would be called an "ultrabook" because that is a term coined by Intel which requires a laptop to have a "u" or "y" model Intel CPU, touchscreen, no optical drive and several other specific requirements.

There are two such laptops sold at Bestbuy; 15.6" HP for $660 and a 14" Toshiba for $600. The HP has a lot of positive reviews while the Toshiba has fewer reviews and most of those are kinda bad.
