Recomendations of Windows 8 Touchscreen Ultrabook for X2

  I have to select a light laptop for mainly use with Sonar X2. My budget is $1,000 I am not going to record more than one stereo track at the time, but I would like to run more effects and instruments than what my current Compaq NX9420 can do.
 
The soundcard will probably be the RME Babyface.
 
My first consideration is the Lenovo Thinkpad Twist S230U
 
  • i7 1,9 GHz
  • Multi Touch 12,5”
  • 8GB 500 GB + 24GB MSSD
  • 1,6 kg
  • $1,024
 
I’ve come to that one just because I’ve seen it at this presentation: http://www.sonicstate.com...kewalk-sonar-x2a-touch/
 
I am also investigating the HP Envy Core i&
 
Any recommendation, or experience from users? Thank You!

I am sorry about the mess. I don't know why the message is on one line only

Do you use Firefox? This forum software doesn't seem to like Firefox. Open it up in Safari (or something else...I'm on a Mac) and it should work like you'd expect. HTH

Yes, it was Firefox. No problem with iE.

Thank you!

After further investigating, I am stack in between this two, and I can not find any notable difference that could affect the performance as a DAW, or to help me decide (besides probably better graphics of the Yoga):
 
- Lenovo Thinkpad Twist i7-3537U
- Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 13 i7-3537U
 
Anyone has experience with Sonar X2 and any of those two?
 
Or perhaps they are too new? I don't like the idea of becoming a guinea pig :-)
