    How easy is it to change the memory? Mine is coming with 2GB I plan to up that to 4GB. And is it only 1 memory slot or 2?

    Single slot, which makes for a pricey upgrade to 4GB. Also, a pointless upgrade, since all systems ship with a 32-bit version of Windows 7. Why pay a high price for 4GB which you can't use to the fullest?

    It's the world's thinnest subnotebook computer. Considering how the posters on that thread handle their notebooks PCs, it's no wonder they've managed to break so many screens. "Protective sleeves" provide no protection, except from dust perhaps, and I've yet to see a backpack that fully protects a computer.

    The bottom line is that the average young adult could break just about any laptop. It mostly comes down to a lack of care and responsibility.

    The best way to deal with this is to get the accidental damage warranty coverage. Peace of mind for three years is worth quite a bit of money to me and it's not really that expensive.
