the casing isn't half bad, i think it is plastic though, just painted over aluminum. Feels less rugged than the CL56. Performance-wise the CL56 would smoke the LS50, but should be about the same as the LM50 (after a HD mod). Plus the LM50 is a slightly different chassis than the LS50, so i'm not sure. The LS50 just didn't impress me much, that's all.

i read on a forum someone got 2900 odd 3dmarks on the lm50a (9700 model)

so it cant be that bad, definitely looks better than a compal, and has a screen which is most likely better than the compal

they say the casing is magnesium/carbon fibre - hmmmm........

yeah that's probably for the LM50 then...the LS50 was plastic i think. I doubt the SXGA+ screen is much better for the LM50 though. And you pay a premium for them for sure.

it says its a WVA sxga+/uxga on the lm50a
from what i've read on here the compal definitely is not WVA

i'm thinking if i ever bought a compal i would buy a uxga lcd and replace the stock one
hitches being i'll be stuck with a lcd, not to mention spending $500 more - lol

You care to elaborate who Go-L is and why they sell laptops for 20l?
