For those who want something bigger, the Butterfly S adds a bit of glamour to your computing life. It is the thinnest PB notebook ever at 19mm and is a mere 1.75Kg as well.
Packing a 13.3 inch display, Dolby Home Theatre sound and a one touch Social Networking feature.
There's also Nvidia's Optimus techonology on board and, again, this is a computer that will last all day – if your day is around nine hours long.
One of the more interesting features on board is the laptop's trackpad. It glows when you touch it and is a decent size.
The final laptop update was an for the EasyNote X. The NX and TX laptops have a 14 inch and 15.6 inch screen size respectively. Both have the same glowing trackpad seen on the Butterfly S.
