This was bought for my wife for work, to replace an older vaio. So far, it is a great machine. The screen size is good...not too small, not too big. Any smaller would make it useless as a laptop. It is VERY light, weighing at least 2.5 pounds less than her old vaio. It is also very thin. It is a pleasure to handle. The screen is sharp and the colors look good. It starts up in a flash (although she doesn't have much loaded on it yet, in terms of additional software, beyond MS Office).
Windows 8 requires a substantial learning curve, coming from Windows 7. Everything is different about it, and I have been struggling to get used to the changes. I like the ability to use the touch screen, which if you are going to get a computer with Windows 8, you should definitely have a touch screen. Some programs (such as Netflix) don't work via the IE...you have to load it as an "App"; that took me a while to figure it out, but once I did it works great. Setup to connect to printers and NAS was pretty easy, although I did have to load drivers from Canon's website for one printer.
Hardware itself: I would buy the Yoga 2 Pro again in a second, for the right use. I don't think I would want to do any CAD work on it, with such a small screen, but regular office work is fine. The backlit keyboard is awesome, because the actual digits and letters are illuminated. It has NO DVD drive, so keep that in mind, and it does NOT have an ethernet port (WiFi only). Also, the HDMI output is a micro HDMI, not full size. All these "issues" are how they are able to make this so thin and so light. A worthwhile tradeoff.
For the record, the unit has 8gb ram, 256gb SSD, and Intel core i7 processor (at 1.8ghz).

I bought this after already owning JD3, because it was on sale and I needed a gift for my daughter. After I bought it, I was concerned that there would be duplication between this and JD3, but there really isn't. The music is different, and the gameplay is not exactly alike. My kids like both and play both equally.
