What can I say. It's simply marvellous! Super quite, super fast, and damn good looking too! Not a single dead/stuck pixel. GREAT!

Only thing that dissapointed my slighty was the keyboard illumination. I would have liked it to be more bright/powerful (yes I have turned it all the way up). But it does the job just fine. I can see the keys in the dark.

The screen i simply awsome. This is the first computer i've had that's not set to max brightness. It's almost too bright if you do that.

Simply Lovely!!! For those of you still waiting: You're in for treat!

I got mine last Monday, and I love it too. I hope that you have great luck with it and that it is all you wished for.

Welcome

Very misleading title. Almost too indecent for Lounge.

I like it.

I guess it depends on what's on your mind when reading it, yeah?

Congrats! and welcome to the board. ^_^

I also got a PB with perfect screen as well. So far, this PB have no problems at all, so I'm very happy as well. Glad it happened to you as well.
Enjoy your new 17 inch hehehe.

You and me both, Ingrid! I just fired it up last night ("It's here! It's here!").

I too got lucky and haven't found a single dead pixel. That was worrying me more than anything. The only "flaw" I've found so far is that it buzzes/rattles for one second when you wake it up from sleep. But that's it!

Congratulations and welcome to the "size matters" club!
