    Wow on paper specs sound good.

      Sorry to say, but things don't sound on paper. Look, yes.

        Haha yes you're right.

        Don't they have talking papers in the US Air Force?

          I just bought some from office works.

    Here's a review for anyone interested: http://www.ultrabookreview.com/9304-acer-aspire-r14-review-2…

    I'm looking for a good 2-in-1 ATM; this is very tempting given the awesome specs for $$$, but I'm still leaning towards a Surface Pro…

    • [Deactivated] on 05/03/2016 - 09:26

      Price difference is huge though… ($2499 for the i7) You can buy 2 of these and still have spare change…

      • StewBalls on 05/03/2016 - 09:32

        Yeah, that's absolutely true…but I'm fairly keen on the slim/light form factor of the SP. FWIW, I can live with the SP i5 for a fair bit less (or even the Core-M to go fanless)…decisions, decisions! :/

    • yaziyo on 05/03/2016 - 19:55

      Surface pro is nice but imo the resolution is too high. Windows sucks at display scaling so you're stuck looking at a blury or a tiny screen.

      • [Deactivated] on 05/03/2016 - 21:10

        Exactly. Same problem with the 14" lenovo laptops.

    I don't even need a new laptop but this deal makes me want to buy one

    Vaio beat them all!
    Vaio S or Z or Canvas….
    Also on price…more expensive :)

    • [Deactivated] on 05/03/2016 - 10:19

      I think non-sony VAIO isn't available in Australia?

      • PLANT on 05/03/2016 - 10:40

        Au Dollar up ;)
        Via Japan or America

        • [Deactivated] on 05/03/2016 - 10:46

          except AU dollar is way down :( …, and have to add 10% GST for over $1000.

    • Helenn on 05/03/2016 - 12:21

      meh I had a top of the range sony viao, it was crap

        That was Sony…not Vaio….oh and I have the 2011 Sony Z2 Vaio direct from HK

    Can these things connect to a monitor?

  • CyberMurning on 05/03/2016 - 09:53

    with only 1 hdmi, can i use
    http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/USB-3-0-To-HDMI-HD-1080P-Video-Ca…
    to get another monitor, and extend the view?
    (not just mirror display).

    the idea is using this at home connected to 2 monitors (extend view) with possibility to carry on while holiday

    • krisspy on 05/03/2016 - 16:11

      AFAIK they all use displaylink technology, so you can plug up to 6 of them in 1 computer. Should work with the built in display out since most of the processing if offloaded to the cpu, but i never got to try it before I return my unit.

      Pretty useless for anything other than word documents really, massive degradation in pq and noticeable lag. Might need to shell out a little more for the spectre if you need to go hard with 2 external monitors.

  • noise36 on 05/03/2016 - 11:20

    Good price for the specs … 1.9kg is pretty heavy for this kind of thing.

    Im pretty sure my HP x360 spectre with similar specs is <1.5kg

    • CyberMurning on 05/03/2016 - 11:48

      But Yours is 13" and $1800?

      • noise36 on 05/03/2016 - 13:27
        +1

        An inch of screen doesn't add 500g

        That's not the point anyway…the point is that it's a heavy unit.

    • [Deactivated] on 05/03/2016 - 14:40

      I agree, sub 1.5kg makes a huge difference when you are carrying this everyday.

  • Justtip on 05/03/2016 - 13:51

    For those of you looking for a good price on the lenovo yoga 900 you can stack the education price, code "LENOVO15" and cashrewards 8% rebate.
    I got the i7, 512GB version for $2098.69 less $152.63 from cashrewards.
    That brought the total from $2599 to $1946.06 shipped. And they've dispatched it in 3 days!

    • BeefBiryani on 05/03/2016 - 19:41

      Link?

      • Justtip on 06/03/2016 - 11:08

        http://www3.lenovo.com/au/en/laptops/yoga/900-series/Lenovo-…
        It's this model but don't forget you have to go through CR and then login with an education login (easily created if you have access to a .edu email).
        CR -> lenovo website -> education login -> pick computer (must be greater than $2000 to use code) -> then type in LENOVO15 at checkout.

    shame it's an Acer…

      Shame you are clueless…

        Oh petal…how wonderful, I was actually thinking of you when I posted that.

    • [Deactivated] on 05/03/2016 - 16:41

      Acer is so underrated, their stuff isn't actually bad you know, they just haven't been doing much…

    This is the 2C i7 guys. If you are looking for a good CPU get the 4C i7s.

    • Shahrasb on 06/03/2016 - 16:00

      AFAIK, Ultrabooks rarely come with quad-core i7 aka Q series. Would be happy to stand corrected if proven wrong though… :)
