Looking at the yoga, trying to get the following specs: SSD - preferrably 256-512gb 8 gb ram i7 processor intel4400 or dedicated graphics windows 8 - no pro needed WHERE COULD A BROTHER FIND SUCH SPECS ON A LAPTOP? note: Doesn't have to be the yoga. but no cd drive please
I'd suggest going with a 256gb at most for cost efficiency, or just investing in a hybrid drive. Though they are not as fast, they are still faster and will get the job done in faster times than a traditional HDD.
My university is giving us the yoga with the following specs: Academic Year 2014-2015 Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga Business Ultrabook Specifications 12.5" FHD 1080p IPS (400 NITS) multitouch display Intel 4th generation Dual Core i5-4300U, up to 1.9GHz processor 8GB PC3-12800 DDR3L SDRAM 1600 MHz memory 256GB Solid State Drive (SATA 3) Intel HD Graphics 4400 Graphics 720p HD Webcam Intel Centrino Wireless-N 7260 BT_BGN Dolby Home Theater v4 Stereo speakers 4-in-1 card reader (SD, SDHC, SDXC, MMC), Mini HDMI, Bluetooth 4.0 2 x USB 3.0 ports (one powered) TrackPoint, Digitizer Tablet Pen 8 Cell LiPolymer 47Wh battery, up to 8 hours 45-Watt AC Adapter
This danish firm makes great laptops, and they let you edit the contents of the laptop as they build each one specifically for you. This one has the stuff your asking for. http://www.mm-vision.dk/vision-b4570-baerbar-med-ips-panel 965 euro. And about the dvd drive, they cost less than 10 bucks, it does not affect the laptops cost at all.
The Intel HD Graphics 4400 are integraded, don't expect to play high end games with this (Just so you know, if you didn't yet)
