Does pcspecialist still sell the 11.6inch Inferno?

[inferno]

I have been looking at buying one of these w110er laptops. The Inferno doesn't appear on the pcspecialist site but when I google w110er uk a page for pcspecialist to configure and buy an Inferno comes up. So, is this page obsolete or do pcspecialist still offer them? Thanks

And this post in that thread:

Unfortunately the 11.6" Inferno has been discontinued - period. The 13.3" Optimus is the replacement whereas the 11.6" Gemini is a different kettle of fish as it's a notebook/tablet hybrid. The 11.6" Inferno was a popular chassis and designed for gaming, but the 13.3" Optimus is only a small amount bigger and even more powerful!

it looks like it has been replaced.

Ah that's disappointing. I wonder why they were discontinued?
Thanks for your help.

Does anyone know of a similarly styled laptop that is retro styled, chunky, and grey like the inferno? Preferably a larger size too.

You won't be able to get a reply recommending a competitor. Have you considered the Optimus 13.3 or skyfire 14"?

Certainly I am in this market and am looking at the Optimus V, it is the next biggest and has a similar pixel density as the Inferno. The Ultranote 14 isn't as powerful and doesn't have as good screen...

laptop	W	D	H	Weight	screen	pixels x	pixels y
SkyFire III	339	239	29	2	14	1600	900
Inferno	287	207	37.1	1.8	11.6	1366	768
Optimus V	330	227	32.9	2	13.3	1920	1080

To be specific, the rule is against advertising competitor sites (according to the FAQ). I don't see why mentioning products by name rather than website/links should be a problem, there's a whole forum section for discussing Apple PCs after all, and sometimes there are threads from people asking whether they should get a PCS product or X-non-PCS-product (which seem to be fine, if no links).
