    Off hand, it looks more like an Asus chassis than a Clevo...
    But hard to tell from only one small picture.

    From above mentioned website; http://www.biosmagazine.co.uk/article.php?id=3379

    It's not a Clevo. It's similar to the clevo 54x series, but the hinges are completely different, and none of the clevo 14 inchers have the video out and the vent on the left side. (at least none that they have on the Clevo website)

    It's not an Asus chassis either...
    So the mystery remains...

    That is an interesting machine . . at first reminded me a bit of a Uniwill, considering the sound bar is underneath the LCD display. But, the hinges don't match up - the ones on that are different sized.

    Looks more like an Arima than anything, judging by the hinges that is.

    Evesham uses alot of MSI too.. but in this particular case it does look like a Clevo to me too. The difference is.. this 14" doesn't have the thin front like their other 14" models..

    upon further inspection.. looks like the BenQ Joybook S73

    Right side ports look near identical

    Front ports the same
