Thanks for the details. So how is keyboard, is it updated (improved) from 1810? Flex?
Also, any real benchmarks? PCmark even? TheDude(Quote) (Reply)
Yes there is flex… no idea about benchmarks, but I just bought it and this is one sweet comp so far. Oh, however plan on using an external mouse, the touchpad blows. Narrow buttons for it and it blends into the wrist-rest, so its hard to use without really looking at it. A.Veritas(Quote) (Reply)
