    anyone know what the dimensions are for the g50vt-x2?

    im interested in this Incase Sleeve
    http://goincase.com/products/category/MacBook Pro

    but im not sure if it will fit.

    If you have any other sleeve suggestions let me know (maybe a carrying bag that you feel is very good - but preferably a sleeve)

    Thanks

    My G50V-A2 is:
    14.8 in x 10.4 in x 1.7 in

    And it has the same chassis, so it should be identical.

    edit: Doesn't look like the macbook pro sleeve you linked will fit

    The G50v may have submodels with slightly different dimensions, then -- reseller BTOTech measured a -VT model in this thread based on reports of actual being off from specs, and found the width to be 15.5."

    In any event, there is no way that a G50 is not going to fit in that case designed for the MacBook Pro... the case depth is one inch :).

    You're going to need a big sleeve if you choose to go that route, as the G50 depth is larger than most 15" notebooks.

    I just pasted those from some site... LOL u are totally right, I got my tape measure out, actual width is about 15.25 (front) to 15.5" (rear)!!! The G50V and Vt are on the same chassis I am pretty sure though, so they should be the same size whatever it is.

    That keyboard lag is prominent in X2s, isn't it? :\ I was about to order mine today, but you still have issues with keyboard lag?

    What exactly is the problem? Letters don't appear on the screen as fast as you type?
