I don't know what is being referred to here. I've had the A21p for
just a couple of weeks, but it seems like it is very well made, very
well put together. Very good keyboard. Excellent display. (I had no
idea that there was room for improvement upon the 770ED display.)
My only complaints with this machine so far are:
1) Right speaker distortion - should probably be replaced
2) Stupid Intel and Microsoft ads on palmrest
3) Replacing paper documentation with software package
On the last point, a couple of words of clarification. I am a big
proponent of having documentation, real hard copy paper bound printed
documentation. And, I don't care a fig that no one reads it. I read
it. It's bad enough that Windows doesn't come with a manual, and you
have to go to the book store and try to figure out which books will
tell you what you need. It's worse with something for which 500 people
are not writing books. Earlier, I had asked several questions, some of
which are covered in the software documentation. The rest may very
well be, but if I can't find the answers, they might as well not be
there. (Enough ranting.)
Ron.
