Something Similar To Macbook Air

Hi Guys,
I was looking at a few laptops today and i couldnt help but notice the Macbook Air but the price put me off a bit.
So is there anything that is comparable to the Macbook Air in terms of weight e.t.c that is cheaper than the Macbook ??
Thanks Guys

Not much cheaper, but the Dell Adamo is about as close as you'll get

you've got all the culv based laptops coming out although in my opinion, spec for spec the macbook air is pretty good value if you want a thin laptop while still getting good performance

You're not going to get one quite as thin but something like the new Dell 13z may be worth a look.

£480 gets you:

1.3ghz dual core CULV, dedicated graphics, 13.3" LED backlit LCD, Windows 7, 320gb HD and 3GB ram.

I'm thinking about the Dell 13z, would the Dedicated GPU be more powerful than the Ion in the netbooks?

Advent Altro is practically a Macbook Air clone but in plastic rather than aloominum
