What you can't tell from the pictures? The black body isn't matte; it sparkles, in a deep, subtle kind of way. Suck on that, Cullens. And it really does have about 8 hours of battery life as long as I don't run multiple heavy-use programs at once (which I don't, anyway). I mean, I wish it had an optical drive so I could watch movies on it whilst flying, but maybe this will force me to start carrying fewer DVDs on trips and start downloading them instead.
In other notes, I have yet to be kicked out of college! Huzzah! *throws confetti half-heartedly* And I might be getting a car from my uncle's old roommate some time this week! *does dance*
