Looking to buy an ultrabook. Pure horsepower isn't needed, but lightweight and fast access is. M.2 drives, SSD is mandatory. Otherwise, whatever specs are fine- just small, light, and long battery life. I want to keep it under $1000, the lower the better.

What's good?

I think ultrabooks are overrated. Megabooks, humungobooks, uberbooks, and even bizzarobooks are good if you can get your hands on one.

Biglybooks are all the rage now. Very popular. The MOST popular.
