I have an ASUS VivoPC-VM40B-01 (win8.0) now -02 (win8.1) :

     http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883220628

- runs Ubuntu 14.04 easily

I bought it originally to run the last two windows apps I need - personal
and corporate tax programs - turns out I can run new versions of these 
with wine 1.7

I would happily buy another if I needed another desktop box.
