IMO, the only benefits of ultrabooks are size/portability (including battery life) and the cool factor. If that's what you need, by all means, go for it. However, that size and portability come at a price, and for me, that price difference is too big to justify the incremental benefit in portability. Performance / computation power should not be a consideration because you can get similar (if not higher) performance from slightly bigger notebooks at a much cheaper price.
