    I'm very interested in this computer, not for me, but for my fiancee as a gift for the school year.

    So far it's been reviewed fine, but I was wondering if anyone here actually has one and is willing to share an opinion on it.

    Thanks in advance.

    I saw it at best buy, didn't care for it, personally; although it is real bamboo, it doesn't appear to be realistic- it looks like synthetic plastic wooden material.

    if you like that syle, I thought it looked sleek. loved the chrome.
    felt a bit heavier than what I was looking for, as well. but did feel solid.
