JiWire's quick take
Likes
Sleek aluminum design, widescreen display, plethora of video options, backlit keyboard, good Wi-Fi range.
Dislikes
Relatively short battery life, finicky latch closure, a little on the heavy side.
Good for
Perfect combination of widescreen size, weight, and power for most users.
Bad for
Those who need minimal travel weight or true desktop performance.
