Ultrabook? biggrin.gif
I played with my friend's V5 that he recently bought not sure why but his lappy sometimes lags for a sec or two when opening or just start up a game :/
Eg; Metro Last Light/ Firefox/ L4D2 also hangs for a while when exit. Is it due to its processor? But dosent seem the same with another friend's 14R

- The additional GPU will definitely make the notebook hotter, especially when in use. But good thing is that Nvidia Optimus is available nod.gif

- Definitely, but you get less the performance. It all boils down to whether you need that extra "juice" or not. Most people don't nod.gif

- Weight differences will be negligible, not for something already that light hmm.gif

- Better stick to W8. Or make sure you check Dell's website and see whether complete W7 drivers are available or not. If you want Windows to boot fast, get an SSD, or at least a hybrid HDD  brows.gif

Actually wanna ask about the last question. If upgrade to SSD drive how to upgrade ah? I see that some config is with the Msata or is it all got?
If I dun want the Msata but actually replace the entire HDD with a new SSD, can I do it myself? or can ask them help us do?
And aside of that the warranty will void? Cuz already bought an 128GB SSD recently and still deciding to get a new laptop :/
I see online pics the bottom seems like no screw de wo doh.gif

Yes, you could replace the HDD with SATA SSD (you can ask re-sellers to help, or DIY by reading the instruction manual), but you need to make sure the z-height of the SSD is 7mm. Doing so, as long as you don't tear any "warranty void if broken" seal, will not void hardware warranty smile.gif

ohhh~! just that most probably I need to clone the HDD first is it? so I can have the recovery and etc, etc.
