All of the ultra books that I see dont have a optical drive, plus they are made of crappy plastic materials, have even crappier screens or glossy screens, and their warrant only goes to 1 year or longer if you pay extra.
My selling laptop is a 12.5 inch HP elitebook 2560p, with matte screen, and optical drive. It comes with 3 years business grade warranty, and built to military specs. Yes, I do travel with it, toss it into the backpack, even toss it onto the bed. My last one lasted me 5 years and was still going. That little laptop even had some metal chips on the side lid. It took a beating and still works. I think I just need to get the 9cell battery.
If I treat my gaming laptop like that it would not last 6 months.
