Ultrabooks

Hi everyone. Just looking at possibly getting an ultrabook. What do you guys recommend? I have around $1000US to spend on one and want a light and portable one as I will use it at school. I am taking programming next year and so want something that would be useful for that but can be also used to run a few minor games. I live in New Zealand so not every single model is avalible of laptop here but most are. I just want to know a few of your recommendations.

Thanks.

Haven't done much research but here: MSI CX61 0NF-621US: http://www.msimobile.com/level3_productpage.aspx?cid=100&id=389

Fast, slim, light and also pretty good for gaming :D Enjoy!
