There are very few computer companies which are still out of the ultraportable-mania. Till some days ago one of them was the well-known Packard Bell which, nobody knows the reason, stubbornly stayed out from the fashion of producing small cheap laptops. All this happened some days ago. As a matter of fact Packard Bell has just unveiled its new and first ultraportable called “Dot”. This little baby, apart from looking exactly like the Acer Aspire, sports a lot of interesting features which don’t thrill anybody for their originality, since they are already and largely  available in the most famous ultraportables.
