Samsung Series 5 NP535U3C-A01US

What do you guys think?

It has almost all the attractive features of an ultrabook and good price point. The biggest issue is that the default harddrive is 5400rpm, but you can swap out.

I might buy, especially since it can run Starcraft 2.

If you need more GPU muscle I'd say go with it but the CPU won't match the ULVs from Intel and the GPU might not do better than the Ivy Bridge HD4000 GPUs either. But since this isn't even close to being a gaming machine and if you don't plan on massive transcoding work it should be a good choice.
