Just in the nick of time the Intel-Inspired Ultrabook, a Lenovo IdeaPad U300s came to my rescue, as my MacBook is turning four and the signs of aging are quite prominent (read: it is soooo slow!). I received this amazing laptop courtesy of Intel, a brand that understands the importance of possessing and utilizing cutting edge technology in order to perform and maintain my job as a blogger and entrepreneur at a superbly efficient rate. Working with WordPress, images, large files, and social media means I have lots of windows open at all times and I need a device that can handle my segmented, multi-tasking work style.
I love the marriage of fashion and function that appears via a printed cover and sleek appearance, as seen in these pics of my new laptop, and on the runway at the Inside Generation Style Fashion Show, but it also has substance behind it’s beauty with an Intel® Core™ i7 ULV processor, Windows® 7 Home Premium software, 4GB DDR3 memory, and eight hours of battery life; perfect for when I take it to a cafè or travel with it.
Speaking of travel, at only 0.6” thin and 2.9 pounds, there’s no reason why I can’t constantly be plugged in to the pulse of my site and work, no matter where I may roam. Since I lead a lifestyle on the go, of constant travel and movement from one city or event to the next, being weighed down with a cumbersome laptop is just not an option. My iPad in my handbag is great, but it doesn’t give me the full functionality, from a work perspective, of having an efficient laptop in front of me. Here’s some pics of me getting accustomed to my new Intel-Inspired Ultrabook, as I am hard at work on FashionPulseDaily, naturally!

Full Disclosure: compensation was received in exchange for Fashion Pulse Daily’s Intel-Inspired Ultrabook participation and review.
Thought I was the only one that worked with a million windows up at once. I may have to check out the Ultrabook. My Toshiba Satellite lets me get 8 windows running simultaneously. Anything more, it freezes.
8 is still pretty good though; definitely check out the ultrabook though!
