Though Toshiba has not shared when exactly it will be outing this Ultrabook but it is expected to hit the shelves only after October 26, as this is the day when Microsoft will be officially releasing Windows 8 operating system.
Ultrabook is a relatively new product category yet all popular personal computer makers such as HP, Sony, Samsung, Fujitsu, Dell, Acer, Asus, Lenovo etc. are already offering them. It is expected that with the introduction of Windows 8 would further add a dash of freshness to this category.
