Hi guys, been out of the laptop game for awhile, need to get a new one for my wife whose 3-year-old Sony netbook is slowly heading towards its last days.

1. Preferred Brand: Anything but Apple. Asus and Acer come to mind when I think of slim lappies. But do suggest more.
2. Budget: 2-3k
3. Usage: Web browsing, presentations, word, light gaming (Yahoo gaming that sort)
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 11-13"
5. Other preferences: Slim and light is a must! My wife has to carry it room to room for presentations sometimes. Aesthetically pleasing, not the blocky, business-like types from say Lenovo. Would need about 8gig RAM too.

Kindly offer your suggestions and thanks in advance.

Looking for an ultraportable.

Currently it's between the Asus UX305FA with 8gb RAM/i5/256gb SSD for RM4099 or
HP Envy 13 with 4gb RAM/i5/128gb SSD for RM400 less.

The XPS 13 and Yoga are overbudget, so it's between the two above. Has anyone tried either or both and do you have any comments about them?
