What's great about it: Doesn't seem to slow my ultrabook down
What's not so great: No issues
Webroot seems to be doing it's job with a minimum amount of intrusiveness which is what you want in virus protection software. So far so good. No viruses and an occasional message that blocks something like it should.

What's great about it: Nice feel and add very little bulk
What's not so great: Doesn't cover all the way to end
Its a pocket style black cover with a finish that makes it easy to grasp and not slip. You slid your ultrabook into it so the last half inch is exposed but this hasn't been an issue for me.

What's great about it: Very thin and smart looking
What's not so great: Shows finger prints
Perfect match in look and compactness for my ultrabook. Most ultra books don't have DVD drives and you may need one occassionally to load programs or watch a DVD. This one is small, light and thin like my ultrabook and shares the same black finish. Perfect.

What's great about it: I can play and enjoy touch tablet feature but still have full windows business power
What's not so great: Some applications still not ready for super high resolution touch
I work a lot with computers and wanted a personal machine that was light, fast and easy to carry on business trips and vacations but I also wanted enough power to load all my pictures, music, some videos and work in excel, access or photoshop. This machines delivers and the 256 gb solid state drive and has the extra space tablets can't deliver. I also have enjoyed the many possible screen positions. I have found it handy for reading in tent mode during a fast food lunch, or sitting tablet mode in front of the TV or working heads down in laptop mode. Windows is still a little skitzo in the fact that it has touch screens and old fashion mouse navigated environments but I find this helpful because you just can't do everything with you finger. Try working in a complex spreadsheet using your finger all the time. Overall I am please with this machine but have found some apps too small in this super high resolution screens and I have to use the trackpad or mouse. Excel and photoshop are like this. I do have an older version of photoshop so its' possible a newer version has addressed issue.
This product is... Good sound quality, A touch pad that works great, Big screen size, A nice compact size, easy to set up, lightning fast

Is there an expansion slot for additional SSD storage?

Was reading a link here
http://jeffreypalermo.com/blog/adding-a-second-ssd-to-my-lenovo-yoga-amp-8gb-ram/
about a guy who updated his Yoga and added a second hard drive. I was wondering if the Yoga Pro also offered this same expansion slot because I cannot get by with 256GB, and do not want to hassle with my external HDDs.
No, unlike standard laptop most ultrabooks I've seen don't provide expansion slots for DVD drives. I have this machine and it doesn't. I have seen folks upgrade the size of their SSD so this may be an option for you if there is one available that fits. Otherwise you will need a USB hard drive to give you the extra room. I too needed a lot of storage but have found I am able to manage 256 with a 128GB SD card and large Thumb drives since this is not my business laptop.
