Personally, I think that 1600x900 or 1440x900 (like we have on MacBook Pro and Wintel laptops from 5 years ago) is the sweet spot for 13"-14" screens. Getting 1920x1080 would be nice, and I wouldn't...

The vizio's form factor is much better than the acer, it has a nicer screen at a higher res, and all-ssd storage so its going to be FAST. The Acer has a better GPU and an optical drive.

4.3 lbs is a little bit on the heavy side for an ultrabook. 3 cell battery lasts up to 8 hours? that sounds weird.

Is this really a slickdeal? I thought the Toshiba from a few days ago had a better spec and was cheaper. Too bad that sold out too quickly.

Are you sure about that? I thought the Toshiba from a few days ago had a better spec - more memory, SSD, and $150 cheaper... too bad it got sold out too quickly.
