Your help wanted, part 2

Lenovo Y580. Best selling laptop at the moment. Reason: It's a gaming laptop at R10 000. i7 - so you have enough CPU performance. GTX660m - for the graphics grunt. 8GB DDR3 1600mhz RAM - for faster loading than the normal DDR3 1333 RAM. I would buy no other laptop for less than R10000.

If 14" isn't too small, this might be the perfect balance between weight (1.8 kg) and size for you I believe (and it has the specs as well):

Thanks Bluefinllama. I also saw it on special at Chaos computers for R9000 at the end of last year. I think they would probably have the laptop available as well. There should be a lot more sites where you can buy it from.
 
So... If I do want to go the ultrabook-with-a-docking-station-at-the-office (with the big screen and full keyboard) route, what options would you suggest? Let's say maximum budget of R15k (would prefer under).
