Major complaints:
The top left and right corners of the LCD have "water ripples" if I touch the side of the screen. This ripple lasts up to 6 seconds. The right ripple spot is bigger than the left. ANY vibration to the screen will cause these annoying ripple oscillations (the "spring constant" of the oscillation is very small, meaning long oscillation cycles).
Don't try to pick up the laptop with you right hand when it's open. The plastic under the DVD/CDRW drive is so flimsy that it bends and creaks. If you get this laptop, you are going to be worrying about breaking it all the time. Make sure you not only get the 3 year warranty, but also the "cover all scenario" warranty.
I have to say the 600m chasis is the FLIMSIEST notbook case I've seen. My other comparisons are Sotec (YES SOTEC IS all-magnesium case, very sturdy), Compaq, toshiba, fujitsu, IBM, SONY, VPR. None of these screens ripple if you
Although I got a great deal on it (<$1000) I rather spend a bit more on a Fujitsu S2010. Better specs, and quality. OR even the Sotec 3150.
I am going to wait for the fujitsu S6210 though.
