    Hello everyone,

    I know it has been discussed already but I still got no answers. I want to buy this laptop but I would like to know a little bit about it before I do.

    I also know there are some members who would like to know more about it so here's what I know so far:

    I've seen the laptop in a shop and it seems well built, although the keyboard has a rather big amount of flex, especially in the middle. It is very light and easy to handle. The screen lid, although is made from magnesium is covered with some sort of leathery like material.
    From what I've seen there is no latch to hold the lid in place when the notebook is closed and I couldn't tell if there were magnets inside the lid. The screen hinges seemed rather solid.

    The screen is glossy but unfortunately I wasn't able to see anything on it since the piece I was looking at had no OS installed. However, Fujitsu screens are usualy better than most manufacturers.


    Now is the hard part. I've read somewhere that the laptop gets hot after a couple of hours of regular use. Can anyone confirm or deny that?
    Also if anyone has had it for some while, what can you tell me about build quality? is it good as it appears to be or does it start to decay quickly?
    In terms of performance I don't expect too much since it has a integrated graphic but a few words will help a lot, especially about battery time.

    Thanks!
