Currently, I have a Dell Inspiron 15R with these specs:

Intel Core i7-3632QM CPU @ 2.2GHz w/ 8GB of DDR3 SDRAM, a 1TB HDD, and integrated Intel HD 4000 Graphics.

I'm looking to get a Haswell based laptop/ultrabook. I've been looking at Lenovo, but they have so many options I have no idea what to get.

What I do: Web Browsing/E-Mail, Video Chat/IM, Gaming, and Video Editing. I also run VMs from time to time.

Well a couple of things to ask. How heavy into gaming are you wanting to go? What programs are you going to use to video edit. These things will dictate how much you would need to spend to get where you would like to be. I get the feeling that if you game and want a close to desktop experience a ultrabook is probably out of the question. And you would probably want to aim for something like one of the MSi gaming laptops.
