I chose the machine due to the processor, I7, 16 gig RAM, the 240 gig flash drive and the 500 gig conventional hard drive. Each of these items lend themselves to handling multiple large complex files at excellent speed. The dual hard drives allow me to store the operating system and programs on the flash drive and the data files on the conventional drive. The combination works well in a machine which replaces an older laptop and a desk top PC.
Portability is not really a big issue with me but having a high resolution 15 inch touch screen, a back-lighted full size keyboard and number keypad are essential to my use of the machine.
We have a 4th gen Ipad, 8.3 Kindle Fire HD, Nook HD and a Kindle book reader, all of which interact well with the laptop.
Battery life is three times longer than my Dell XPS, which is a great improvement for use in my home, office and shop.
The only two down side items are that the screen cannot fold or detach to be used like a tablet and even though the heat is routed out the side of the machine it is still warm but not unusable in my lap.
Overall the machine meets or exceeds my requirements.
