Illegear and Aftershock are both resellers of Clevo laptops. Clevo doesn't sell their laptops directly to consumers because they are barebones laptops.

After reading through much of this thread and googling around, I'm truly interested in getting myself one of these babies. I've opted for the RE-13 Pro. Let me explain abit about my intended use of this lil monster.

This laptop shall serve as my desktop replacement. Eventhough, the screen is small, I'll actually be using this mostly with a 24" LED LCD, wireless mouse/keyboard combo, and wireless speakers. The size/weight will make a difference when I travel, and I do move around quite abit.

I do mostly word processing type of work esp. with Excel. And my Excel files are usually very large with numerous functions/macros in use. Also, the usual surfing, email, etc.

I will also be watching HD videos and be doing some casual gaming (DOTA 2, Diablo 3, Metro, Flash games, etc.)

With that in mind, I've opted for the below specs

i7-4200MQ
GTX 765M
- IC Thermal Compound
8GB DDR3L
500GB 5400rpm WD HDD
120GB Crucial M500
Intel Dualband Wireless-AC
Win 8

I have some questions in regards to this machine, and hope someone could help me.

- What is the brand of the LCD screen?
- What is the finish of the internal side of the laptop (the sides of the keyboard) and what is the colour? (From the photo is looks grey)
- What are the dimensions of the machine? This is to allow me to visualize the size of laptop
- Any shop where I can "touch and feel" this laptop?
- Your website has some inconsistency when explaining 1-to-1 exchange. Is it 7 days or 14 days?
- As the other specs that I need information for was not listed on your website, I assume that this machine is a clevo-w230st. Therefore, the ports stated for that machine will also be the same as this machine. Am I correct?
- With the setup above, what will be the battery life at idle and also when doing light work (web surfing and stuff)? Again, I'm assuming this is a 6 cell battery.
- For the custom colour, do I just give you the colour I want from a particular make/model of a car? This relates to my second question, because I'm not sure how the colour will turn out on diffferent materials. I'm interested in full body painting.

Finally, hope to hear from the forum anyone who has purchased this and what their experience was.

Thanks a bunch!

Yeah no kidding.

Ordered the RX-17 EVO with the NTSC 90% glossy screen and they sent it with the 120Hz matte screen instead. 

Ordered it in mid-June, picked it up this week (processor was out of stock), and now gotta wait till mid-July if want to replace it with the glossy screen.
