    The finish reminds me of a snake-skin finish. I can't help but think of anything else when I look at it.

    I wish my M1330 had the backlit keyboard though.

    That design is just ridiculous. It looks like the designer took his inspiration for a cheap 80's hifi. There target audience must be 12 year olds. Such a fall from M1330 grace.
