So I recently started looking at perhaps investing in a new laptop or maybe a ultrabook. It has been some time since I have done this and it seems that Technology and choices are endless. The same seems to be true of MS Office. So where to start?


Currently I use MS Office 2010, am a power user of Powerpoint and Visio, and even excell. I also use Photoshop and sketchup a lot.
I work for a large educational institute where I can get MS Office products for a song.
I also use my iPad at work, use skydrive and dropbox a lot.
So what are my choices then? Do I get an ultrabook with something like a 128 SSD? Or perhaps one with an HHD of 500 GB? Or perhaps the Surface Pro?
Portablity is a concern for me as well as easy access to my files whether I am working on my files at work on my office PC or home or elsewhere.
So if anyone has any insight I would love to hear from you please.
