Is it really proper to call this or any machine with an AMD processor an "ultrabook" when the term is Intel's invention?

I don't know, I'm not the one who called it that. You do have a point, but I wonder did Intel trademark the name? If so, then they would have the right to ask Dell (or whoever started calling this unit an "ultrabook" to stop. If not, then anyone can call whatever they want an ultrabook.

You really have no business building a computer if you don't know the difference between Intel and AMD. Buy one from Dell, HP, etc..

If says i7 its that one because this computer model just have the i5 and i7,i seem that error before i get mine on this site, i dont know why they still have on the description.

No, but it can be beneficial at times to pair AMD cards with AMD processors which in turn involve AMD boards. It's not a requirement tho and you can use Intel based equipment with this card is preferred.

The term "old version" is used by Asus. I don't know what they are referring to.

Whatever you buy be sure to select 'Intel' processor products NOT AMD..! I burned my hand by getting a A6 AMD (1450) even. Damn slow, even after adding 10GB memory does not help. I7 or I5 is the best even I3 ought to be ok. Yes, my 11.6 ultra is super light compared to my 16" or 17" laptop, but I cannot work long enough on 11.6" because of small screen view. I use Alt & '+' to increase the font size. I use glass to read. So 11.6" i will give to someone.

Yes it is. The 4700 in Intel Core i7-4700MQ stands for 4th Generation. It also says it in the overview description.

Every other website lists this as a dual core and AMD says it's a dual core CPU, so I don't think it is quad.

Why hasn't the Asus rep answered this question? Unless, they are purposely leaving it ambiguous.

Yes. Almost all modern CPU's and chipsets are 64-bit. Can't speak for AMD but for Intel it's Core 2 Duo and later are 64-bit.

It's an old computer and might not take newer programs. From 2008 & up, these computer are more acceptable since they us the Intel Chip.

I do not know very much about computers, but I will try to help. I am on it currently and there is a sticker that says intel inside core I3 if that helps. Sorry if it has nothing to do with your question.

Yes, the OS is stored on the SSD for instant on capability. Without this capability, it cannot be referred to as an ultrabook.

No, this motherboard is for processors that existed before Intel started naming they're stuff with an "i" in front

Not sure what you are asking, but this series contains amd A4 apu's. Meaning the cpu and video card is integrated in one chip. I think that is the basis for this lineup. You need more detailed of a question to get a better answer.

Not sure how to answer that. But I bought this back in june and I absolutely love it. It is the best computer I have bought yet. It is very fast and lots of memory space. It has not let me down yet!

Ultrabook, $500 price-point, Core i5 CPU - in today's market you can have any two of these features, but (probably) not all three.
