Cheap Touch Laptop and good design (it reminds me of a Macbook Air) for a Win 8. Personally, I would upgrade the HDD to a SSD plus another 2-4 GB of RAM.
Ps. Windows 8 without a touch screen is useless IMO. For current Win 8 owners who do not like the OS, try installing Classic Shell which is free to download.
I'll probably be negged for this but this looks like the perfect laptop except for the brand name on it. I'd prefer the 14" ASUS when it's on sale. Otherwise great deal :)
I'll give +1 because of expandable memory, not sure if the 14" ASUS VIVO has this, my F202E 11" doesn't so maybe the 14" variant doesn't either?
