I dunno what your experience has been - but allthough this is a nice
computer performance wise, I'm not very happy with the case. It seems a bit
fragile for my liking. I've been careful with it and haven't dropped it or
broken anything on it, but I'm frequently worried that something could
stress and break. My dad has a ThinkPad, and it's very rugged. Whenever I
get my next one (not for some time), I am leaning towards one of those.
