My wife and I are looking to buy a new laptop and really want to get an "ultrabook." Our preference would be to buy it from Costco, mostly because of Costco's excellent warranty and return policies. (Costco usually has competitive prices too, and our Costco membership gets us a small percentage kickback, as well.) Anyway, today we were were shopping the "roll your own" HP laptops on Costco's site and I noticed that one of the options for one of the models was to have it ship with VideoStudio x4 pre-installed. That's right... x4. The cost for the VideoStudio option was US$40, and x5 was not offered. Of course, you can buy Corel VideoStudio Pro X4 Ultimate from Amazon for US$26, so you'd have to really want someone else to install it if you paid for the pre-installation.
Just thought some of you might find this interesting.
