I am looking for an new laptop for business/work use.
The closest that comes to my needs and desires is the Asus 32A Ultrabook, but I would need to swap out the HD for an SSD and upping the memory to 8Gb results in single channel operation.
I will be running a vm webserver, a couple of graphics programs on the laptop so need both the memory and bandwidth. Gaming performance is not important, but dedicated video memory is. Nvidia or AMD I have no preference.
If anyone is aware of a laptop similar to the Asus 32A but with SDD and 8Gb Ram can you please point me in the right direction.
The laptop must have a @720p or 1080p matte screen or at least a screen good enough for working outside in indirect sunlight (for the rare occasion we get some sun here in blighty) 12-13" wide or there about and as light as possible, i5 preferably but i7 is OK.
Alternatively, are there any trusted custom laptop builders in the UK? I have found a couple but there is always some compromise to be made. If a am going to spend up to £1500 on a laptop, I don't want to compromise. To be able to support a small UK business instead of one of the corporates would also be great.
No Apples please, nothing wrong with their kit except that even after they have sold it they still think it is their kit, besides they're rich enough already.
Thanks for your time
