    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

    If you're not after any specific kind of laptop with those specs, Consider maybe a surface pro 3?

    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.

    I personally would not trust any laptop named the "Yoga".

    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.

    965 euro.

    And about the dvd drive, they cost less than 10 bucks, it does not affect the laptops cost at all.

    Id never suggest a laptop if you intend on gaming unless portability is a MUST in your situation.

    Even then, matx is still usually the way to go, unless you're extremely casual.
