    While definitely not stylish, it doesn't look ugly to me. I second the request for pictures: this laptop is on my short list and it's a VERY short shortlist... like, two models. LoL. Soooo... pics... as the stock ones suck... pretty please? :rolleyes:

    I know its been said a million times but looks are subjective. Some people like it while others don't. Same with the HEL80, maybe even more so - some people describe it as gaudy or fugly while others say it is beautiful. It seems that most people like the looks of both of these models much better in person vs. the stock compal pictures while those who don't haven't seen them in person.

    I would watch the HGL30 owners lounge for pics. Keep in mind this model is pretty new and not that many people actually have it yet. I will definately post some when mine comes but that probably won't be for a couple weeks.

    Based on the pictures that I've seen I would have to disagree with that. I think it looks pretty good.

    yeah, the few pics that have been posted look pretty good, more like a blue (/green?) steel look, which is cool.

    I'll be able to confirm this in person by Monday :p
