Need a nice everyday use Ultrabook laptop! Any ideas!?!

dOgFiSh

So im looking for a nice laptop to just have as an everyday portable computer, I already have a very beast gaming computer at home so I don't need this for games.

Price is really not an issue, but I would rather not spend more then 700... Its just gonna be for music and some programs and to take out on trips. Nothing to fancy.

I was looking at these laptops from Asus and they seem pretty good for the price.

ASUS VivoBook S500CA-DS51T 15.6" Touchscreen Ultrabook

&

ASUS Vivobook S400CA Ultrabook

So let me know if anyone of you fellas have tried these ultrabooks or have other suggestions that are good.

Oh yea for specs, I would like it to be an ultrabook, touchscreen, 13 inch or bigger, core I-5 or better, 6Gigs of ram, dosent have to be 1080p, 720p is fine, and an ssd cache for boot up. I don't mind having a hard drive, I could always upgrade that later.

Thanks :)

You can't go wrong with ASUS' ultrabook offerings. I have a first gen Zenbook UX31E. i5 (quad core), 4GB of RAM, 128GB SSD and it runs Win 8 beautifully. Battery life is stellar too. I can leave it in sleep mode for weeks if I so desired and it use very little power. When using it, it sips power doing some word processing and browsing 5+ tabs in chrome.
