Man, only 1GB. Even the Lenovo Y70 has 4GB of 980M, and the entire laptop is worth half the price of this.
 

Did you say "even the Y70"? The Y70 is a 7.5Lb, 17", 1080P gaming rig. It has 3.5 hours of web browsing battery life...without using the dGPU in power saving mode! There are very few Ultra book form factors with a dGPU, at all. There are few laptops that use a 980M, and the ones that do are pretty much all targeted at gamers. If you want a gaming rig, an ultra book is not for you. None of them.

"Users can expect around 3.5 hours of constant browser use if on Power Saver mode with active integrated graphics"

Edit: And it appears to have an 860M, not a 980M.
