CULV by itself is a good processor, but when you pair good with garbage (4500mhd), you get garbage.
Pair it up in a 12 inch with a real GPU and it will be noteworthy. Pair it up with junk Intel graphics, and the whole package is just more junk.
The demand for thin and lights has not been high. It isn't because people don't want thin and lights, it's because people won't buy them if they contain Intel garbage GPUs.
I have to agree with thebrainspecialist.

Give me a dual core or go home. If I wanted a single core I'd just go with an Atom
Battery life suffers when you put in fancy graphics. With a GMA4500HD you can still watch HD stuff and keep the power around 10-15W.
This is the reason you don't see much ION stuff, because despite all the hype it's just not very good.
Intel CULV breaks wind, 'cause its video chip is a real FART!
Do not want. Gimme an ATI or Nvida chip. Something other than an Intel GMA chip. Preferably with dedicated memory.
