Japanese PC maker DosPara is no stranger to pushing the limits of netbooks and ultraportable laptops. The company was one of the first to put out a notebook with a dual core Atom 330 CPU and NVIDIA ION graphics, for example. But DosPara’s latest notebook ups the game with the addition of a Blu-Ray drive.
The Dospara limited edition “Yu-pon” model is based on a character from game animation company Nitro+. The notebook features a 12.1 inch, 1366 x 768 pixel display, 2GB of RAM, a 320GB hard drive, 802.11b/g/n WiFi, and an HDMI output. It’s loaded with Windows 7 Home Premium, and according to Akihabara News it’s due out in Japan this month for 69980 yen, or about $783 US. I doubt we’ll see this laptop in the US anytime soon though.
