    I think I'll get a white when I reorder. I like the colors, but the microsatin is sort of sticky and seems to attract dust and lint.

    I'm not sure if your 1420 came with a manual, but apparently you're meant to look at the LCD side of the laptop lid when using the laptop .. as opposed to staring at the white cover for hours.

    Just thought I'd give you guys a heads up so that you can use your laptop to its full potential!
