That is a lot of green, make the screen detachable to use as a tablet any maybe, but that's too rich for me

Why aren't they using CPUs with Intel HD5000 graphics?

Seems you have to buy a Macbook Air to get HD5000.
No way I'm buying anything from Apple.

How can Lenovo make their Yoga 2 sell so much cheaper with the same kind of screen resolution and better specs. The Core i7 version with 8GB RAM and 256GB of storage is $1200 at best buy.

There is nothing wrong with the Macbook Air. Just the high price. If you want the HD 5000 you better pay up.

I was looking at the ATIV 9 in Best Buy the other day and couldn't help but think about how cheap it felt compared to offerings from Asus, Lenovo, and Apple. I don't have a problem with plastic, but this stuff felt lower end than the price would suggest.

It is Samsung. They are not known for selling product cheap. For notebook I normally just go with other vendor which offer more bang for buck. Consider computer in general loses its practical value in a few years, there is generally no point to buy a premium product unless someone is overflowing with cash, like Bill Gates, or Tim Cook. Same reason I will never buy a Mac.

There are 2 problems with this PC.
1) Why HD 4400?
2) Price. 128GB-4GB version is $1399, this one $1799. $400 jump for an extra 128GB and 4GB of RAM?
