That silvery bit doesn't look too healthy... The rest of it is High Quality Nerd Porn though ;)

Nice :) It looks like it could get warm in there. Almost all cramped up.

Interesting that Lenovo used their traditional separated palm rest and keyboard design like on the ThinkPads. Certainly makes it easy to get the keyboard out, but maybe a bit harder than with Dells.

I picked up one of these babies, and am actually typing on it now. I like it more than my buddy's Asus.
The only complaint I have with the keyboard is the right shift key being on the right side of the up arrow, as opposed to the left side.
Other than that, the heat this thing puts out isn't terrible.
Lenovo ha one happy customer here!!!

"Other than that, the heat this thing puts out isn't terrible."
I live in a city that is hot and humid all year round and let me say that the Lenovo gets very hot under light usage/load.
Also used a Dell Mini (son #1) and that gets pretty hot too because of the passive cooling.
Of all the Netbooks that I am privy to, the Aspire One (son#2) MSI Wind 3cell (daughter) ASUS Eee901 (wife) and the ASUS Eee 1000 40GB SSD (mine) faired better with hot weather because of the cpu fan running.
So I sold the Lenovo to a co-worker, who is happy but complains a little about the heat.
Oh well, waited and waited for the S10 & Dell Mini and was dissapointed with
both builds.

I just got mine delivered, ahead of schedule. It is strange typing on this keyboard. I am used the the great keyboard found on the ThinkPads. (I have owned an R40 for 6 years.) This keyboard is TINY! My fingers keep hitting each other. The screen is bright and clear and great. The speakers are adequate. No ThinkPad has great speakers, and this is my first IdeaPad. It is light and I don't plan on doing any CPU intensive stuff on here, so its speed is perfect. The way the HD is partitioned is a little strange, and Norton is bundled and won't go away. Other than that, it is not a bad little machine.
