    I just bought an Asus U81A-RX05 from Best Buy for $649.99. However, there seems to be something wrong with the screen...I took it to the store they said it was a feature...it was shiny and weird, like pixelation...

    It was on the display version as well on the counter...

    Is this normal for those who have purchased the same black model? I got them to exchange it for an HP with the same price, but I'm not happy with the HP.

    I really miss the LED screen, only if there wasn't any issues...as well as the multi-touch touchpad. Also, the DVD-RW drive seems mis-aligned...they told me it was only in the display unit, but mine had the same issue...

    Please help...so I could exchange this HP back for the U81A-RX05 I returned earlier! Thank you!
