Hi all,
I'm considering getting an SL500 because they're on sale and I can get one that has a fast processor.
However I've seen videos that demonstrate that the case is pretty flimsy, i.e. the keyboard flexes, the wrist rest bends easily and the screen twists when moved from a corner.
I wonder, are these major worries for you SL500 owners? Also, I've read that keyboard flex can be corrected, but what about the wrist rest? Can it be reinforced?
Thanks.

Re: Keyboard flex and wrist-rest sag
If anything, the SL500 I played with briefly demonstrated less flex in the palmrest and keyboard than the much touted T400 units we have at my workplace...
