While Intel is positioning ultrabooks as premium ultraportable notebooks with reasonable price tags, there's one premium feature that's currently an exception instead of a rule: high resolution displays. Almost every ultrabook we've seen to date has a 1366 x 768 pixel display. But Gigabyte's upcoming U2442V ultrabook has a 14 inch, 1600 x 900 pixel screen. Update: An earlier version...
