    This picture makes me feel sad. Like watching those animal shelter commercials with Sarah Mclachlan. I just want to donate to help this poor laptop out.

    Probably some rich person owned/owns it. Doesn't give a crap about it. Heck, I wipe dust off of the outside, and the fingerprints from the screen, religiously! Baby this thing. LOL

    Can't imagine how anal I'll be with the m18x. Probably be like Nigel Tuffnel, from Spinal Tap when he was showing off his guitars to Rob Reiner, "Dont' touch it!!! Don't even point at it". LOL

    It's just a bit dirty and someone took off the LCD inverter cover. I'd gladly take it off whose-ever's hands it was.
