This isn't really the right place for that question, but all of those have bad resolution screens, as do all of the linux-able ultrabooks. I'm not saying that they should be Retina, but 768 vertical px is unacceptably regressive.

  The Asus zenbook prime 11" and 13" are shipping with full hd ips screens.

    That's nice to see, thanks, but at a 50% premium over an MBA (including Windows tax).

      I'm not sure which model you looked at, but I believe the 13"/4g/128gb is priced at $1100 msrp vs. similarly configured air at $1200. Microcenter had it for $1000 a few weeks ago.

        I think I was probably looking at list price.

I have a ZenBook from asus (UX21 with i7) and it is great: slim, fast, neat screen.
