Last couple years, only Asus made something more inspiring - ZenBook. And ZenBook is just following forced guidelines by a fucking CPU manufactorer - Intel. Really, how pathetic is that?

Really? I know that CPU development is a bit slowed down because they pretty much have to use new materials to really increase performance, but graphic card developments have been really cool for the last few years. SSDs are now becoming mature and have accessible price.
Also, Zenbook? Too big to put in a pocket losing the portability contest with a smartphone and too shitty hardware to be compared to proper computers. In fact tablets suffer from the same problem. No, inspiring hardware can come in many different formats, but smearing your greasy fingers over a glossy screen on a weak computer is not one of them in my opinion and that is pretty much the only thing that Microsoft is hinting at. They made one single major alteration to windows 8 over the predecessor and it is touch screen UI. There is nothing inspiring about putting touch screens on all kind of computers.

There are plenty of people who like smearing their greasy fingers on everything: makes me wanna puke a bit.
