Micro Express Zune Laptops
System builder Micro Express today said it would move its largely budget-oriented WinBook line upscale this month with the addition of two notebooks to its line. Both the 13.3-inch TL (shown) and 15.4-inch GL will adopt a glossy, brown chassis meant to recall the unconventional choice of style made by Microsoft for its Zune music player, including a halo-effect secondary color around the portables' edges. Hardware and pricing has not been provided for the new WinBooks but will likely include Core 2 Duo processors and an overall higher price to reflect performance. Micro Express says it will announce the GL and TL series by the end of this month, in time for the launch of Windows Vista. [via Crave]
