    With the M570RU on the horizon, shops will stop restocking on M570U, does that mean the end of the stylish clevo laptops? The RU is nowhere as nice looking as the U :(

    What? This is only your opinion. I think the RU is by far the sickiest thing I have seen. I had 570u for awhile, and yes it was nice looking laptop, but RU is a better looking laptop IMO.

    the M570RU looks very mainstream, with black color, orange trim, and carbon fiber.

    The M570U looks great with its Audio DJ panel and the metallic color.

    Both have the same Keyboard and Screens.

    I must say that the RU looks much better. The U looks slick, but by seeingthe pics the new one is definitly an improvement IMHO. So much that it looks that will be a waste of money to paint it, something that with the U was clearly not the case.

    The only thing mainstream comparable in terms of pics to the RU is the Sony VAIO AR31S IMHO.

    I agree with DFTrance.

    In addition, the Audio DJ panel is pretty old stuff that no one really uses anymore now that you have so many other MP3 options out there.
