Well, I havent received mine yet, it will be in 2-3 weeks time as they ran out of stock from last IT Show.

FYI, I did upgrade the OS to Win 7 Pro for additional $76.00.

I heard we cant upgrade the memory further as no more slot available?

Any comments on the ultra book? is it substantially slower then 2640QM laptop?

The Whole chasis is sealed up.. you cannot upgrade ram or HDD.

I see .. but is there extra slot but it just technically almost impossible without breaking it apart - except those with the right tool?
