Need a Lightweight Long Lasting Laptop

[AdvancedSystems]

Hey Guys and Gals,

Hope someone can help me. Im interested in a new laptop for university and it needs to be fairly lightweight and most importantly have a good solid battery life when doing standard office tasks.

I am ok with any screen greater than or equal to 13 inchs. I would prefer that it had a small gpu something that could handle starcraft but I am willing not to if it means I get a better overall laptop.

My budget is around $1500.00

To give you an idea I was thinking of getting the ASUS UX32VD ultrabook but the fact that its sold out everywhere and deactivated on newegg...well dosent vibe well not to mention you pay a slight premium for a design that I could live without.


Thank you so much!

Take this. Add an SSD. Add 8 GB Ram. It is a real CPU, but would last you 5 or 6 hours. Costs total under $500. Not going to run Starcraft 2 well, but it should run.
