Webroot doesn't make the test list for AV-Test and other independent labs. Performance reports I did find bothered me a bit. The Yoga 2 Win8 I purchased already had Norton 30 day trial installed anyway.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My wife loves her new Yoga 2

Purchased for my wife, the Yoga 2 was just what she wanted in size and weight. Her previous laptop was a typical 5.5lb 14" screen and she was tired of lugging it around. The Yoga is fast and easy to use w/ Win 8 touch screen UI or typical mouse pad. Good battery run time.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I saw in the reviews that wifi connectivity is a problem. Is that true? Is there any fix?

I also noted those reviews before we purchased but our experience has been no problems w/ WiFi connectivity. She has used it in multiple hotels and restaurants as well as home and office WiFis.
