Asking on behalf of my friend here... he wants to buy an ultrabook with 15" but not too pricey.
1. Preferred Brand - Any, as long as its reliable.
2. Budget - RM2.5k+
3. Usage - Mostly assignments, watching movies and soon using for autocad
4. Preferred laptop/screen size - 15"

Ultrabooks are not exactly very good for autocad hmm.gif

Although entry-level GPUs do not bring about very significant performance difference to AutoCad performance, its still better to try to go for the most powerful one that you can get for your budget nod.gif
In which's case, this:
15.6"
Asus N56Vz-S3088V, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT650M@RM2699[Bang&Olufsen], 4GB, 750GB, W7HP, subwoofer and backpack

Although having an i7 and a good GPU would be even better brows.gif
14"
Lenovo
Y480(5934-7549), i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT650M (GDDR5) @RM2599 [JBL], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), backlit keyboard, freeDOS, 2 yrs warranty, P950 headset
Y480(5934-1372), i7-3610QM + Nvidia GT650(GDDR5)@RM2699[JBL], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), backlit keyboard, W7HB, 2 years international warranty

Most people who want something lightweight and thin will not go for a 15.6" notebook laugh.gif
those who do have deep pockets - MBP 15 with retina display.
Ever since Dell decided not to bring in the XPS 15, there are not much lightweight 15" notebooks anymore... at least not for now...
There are upcoming ones though ~

How about the S56?
