Initial impression was good - brushed aluminium effect case, etc.

Opening the lid, there seems to be an excess of glue has squeezed out on the left of the case, where the aluminium meets the plastic. This doesn't look good.

There is a creak when pressure is applied to the other areas of the metal casing, such as when resting your wrists while typing.

The "mute" button seems to think it's being touched / pressed all the time - i have an icon flashes up every few seconds, showing muted, then unmuted, etc.

Connecting devices to the HDMI port are not recognised... unless you "wiggle" them a bit - makes me think there is a loose connection, I've tried it with a few TVs / Monitors (different cables), all the same. I often manage to get picture, but no sound.

Wifi connecting to Wireless N router, will not connect at more than 72MBps, no matter what you do.

when typing, the touch pad thinks it's being touched when it's not (clicks, etc) - don't want to have to keep switching it off.
