Lenovo Yoga 2 Convertible 13.3 - is this worthy?

Options
http://www.johnlewis.com/lenovo-yoga-2-convertible-ultrabook-intel-core-i3-4gb-ram-500gb-13-3-touch-screen-silver-grey/p1775250

I'd like some help on here, and am wondering if you guys can offer a piece of your wisdom.

My needs are in the main:

Youtube/Spotify/iPlayer streaming
internet browsing
a bit of downloading (1 film pw)
light emailing
Work: 1-3pw of Word and Excel

I'm no gamer, just an everyday type of thing with about no more than 30hrs pw. of usage. one thing this model doesn't have a cd/dvd player, but is that a big must, as they're a ten a penny these days? or is it too much of a faff?

what do you think?

thanks in advance!

    Any modern laptop will carry out those tasks .
    The majority are down to your internet connection .
    CD/ DVD depends if you have any you want to play on a laptop .
  • i don't have a TV, and so borrowing boxsets, Lovefilm etc. will be my source of films. I would like to dl again, but am not sure if the torrent sites are still around.
    I don't know if this model is a good deal; i just like the fact you can angle it in different positions.
