Here's the new premium notebook from Samsung. I want one if the WIFI issues from the previous generation are resolved.  1600x900 400nit screen, backlit keyboard, no Apple on the lid.  I'm in.  See the product area at https://www.samsung.com/us/article/the-new-series-9-thin-fast-smart.  See the press release for the second generation Series 9 at www.samsungces.com/Common/Include/Download.asp?FileSEQ=1687.

The picture above is of the striking 13" Series 9 model.  The new 15" model was demonstrated on stage at CES and sports a couple of USB 3.0 ports and a DB15 VGA port on the left side.  We'll get the full specs eventually but Samsung says the 15" model is just over 3 pounds and it's packing a 1600x900 screen in a 14" chassis with their MaxScreen thin bezel design.
