But, again, he'd have to replace his Adobe software at great expense.The US Spec Asus Zenbook Pro UX501 is rather nice. 512GB SSD and a 96whr battery. 4k Display and 960M graphics.

unfortunately most euro variants are just 128GB with 1TB HDD and only the 60whr battery.
it runs around 1600?/USD
if thats not portable enough there is also a Asus Zenbook UX303 with the U variant of Intel CPU's and only up to 940M graphics.
It's expensive enough to pretty much lock most people into the platform they chose initially upon purchasing the suite.
He should stick with either fixing his Mac or replacing it with another one.
