    That's the way it goes. You can sell your current laptop and get what you want.

    Why are you confused? It's kinda confusing for me too...
    OK, the orange one looks great for a gaming laptop, but attracts attention and it doesn't give your laptop a business look. The silver trim works best for people that don't need the laptop to get noticed or just want people to think that they have a business laptop (sort of).
    Clevo, next time make a great trim and a crappy one. This way people will know for sure. :)

    There was an Asian site that was selling it with a black trim and a black lid.

    Asian? Probably custom built anyway, as Clevo only offers these two colors.

    They are too expensive. Even DevilTech is cheaper (and probably better).

    I see some people feel the same way about the cases...

    Now, I wonder if someone (XoticPC -- I'm looking at you! :)) would offer the silver-trim base with the black cover from the orange-trim's. ;)

    I think I could justify paying extra for that.

    Sager has analyzed offering other selections of trim and LCD cover color combinations and has concluded they will not offer any new combinations.

    The silver lid with the orange trim looks pretty goofy. The Black lid with the silver trim looks ok, but not good enough to go through the hassle of offering so many different combinations.

    NOW, if you absolutely positively HAVE to have some special combination...AND you are willing to PAY DEARLY for it...just email your favorite reseller and beg nicely...but don't be shocked at the PRICE...IF they can do it at all, and that is a BIG IF...it will NOT BE CHEAP :D
