On the version of the Acer Aspire that I purchased I needed to buy the Microsoft Office suite separately. However the Ultrabook itself is phenomenal.

I am/was split on this thought as well, but personally I feel the costs will be prohibitive of the U500. I presume it'll be around the $1500 mark for dedicated graphics and a 128SSD+500GB HDD (there will also be a 512GB SSD, which will easily make the laptop cost around $1700. The price of the laptop, albeit a subjective point, is for me not worth it considering the absolute POOR customer service reviews ASUS has gotten on here. It's very disappointing, and that's put me on the ultrabook search again after having my doubts about the UX32 :(.

I do not think so, but, frankly, I am not even sure what that is!!! This laptop works great for my needs.

that would depend on what your needs are. This is a laptop with the power of a powerful desktop

This is the laptop. If you want to see the keyboard, bottom base and side ports, battery bay etc, this photograph does not show these.

Sure you can use the 250 gb ssd, but just make sure your ultrabook is upgradable And you can remove the harddrive

Hello, it is not a laptop, it's a netbook, a netbook is just like a tablet with a keyboard attached. Thank you for your interest.

No, it does not. Most of these newer, very light, ultrabook-type laptops do not. However, you can buy one for under $20. You'll find you seldom use it.

basically right now just the 4 gb ..there is a new one coming out UV500V2 might have more BUT it's humongo!!! 15.6 inches and I hardly think of that as an ultra book.. Ultrabook to me means not just light but will fit on my lap... can carry with one hand (not just light but can hold with one hand without awkwardness nor fear of it not balancing correctly and crashing).

64-bit. It's a full Windows 8 installation, which is usually 64-bit. The only 32-bit systems you might see these days are netbooks with Win 8 RT. The Inspiron 15z is a full laptop, though, not a netbook. The word 'Ultrabook' might seem to suggest it's a netbook but no, it's a full laptop.
