I like the thought of a MAC Airbook, but think it might be too expensive, would i get a decent spec for about £500?

Many ultrabooks do not come with Optical Drives, so you can't rip DVDs/CDs unless you buy an external drive. Just an observation basically no recommendations , I like my lap[STRIKE](dancers)[/STRIKE]tops solidly built

Maybe - look at the VivoBook for starters.

There is not many choice with £500...

You can have a look at acer s3-391 (i5, 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD) or Toshiba Z830-10N (i3, 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD)
