    Hi, not sure if this has been posted or not, but I've uploaded some photos of this machine, should any of you find it useful. Photos are from my phone so they're not fantastic.

    Please feel free to ask me any questions.

    Too big and bulky for my personal tastes, but to each their own. :)

    looks gorgeous. So is the screen reflective at all? Or is it the same as the D830's WUXGA+?

    Is it completely built with a magnesium alloy or just the top?

    It's actually way less bulky than the e1505 and 1520. It's actually only a tad bit thinner and a tad bit lighter, but the quality of construction is such that if you pick both up you'll definitely notice a difference.

    (Of course, I may just be biased, but I have picked up an e1505 and a D830 at the same time)

    IIRC, Precisions and Latitudes only come with matte screens.

    The chassis and the lid are magnesium alloy, the palmrest and the bezel around the screen are plastic.

    Pics aren't bad at all! Looks just like my old Latitude D630.
