I saw the 760CD at Comdex Asia yesterday and managed to get a few minutes hands-on experience with it. I wont bore everyone with superlatives but one aspect of the design I am not impressed with and that is the keyboard tilt. When the cover is lifted the keyboard detaches itself away from the body of the computor at the screen end and is raised at an angle supported by two spring metal clips clearly visible from the outside. The base of the computor continues to lie flat on the table. When I saw this I wondered about the heat. In the case of the 75x series, when the two "legs" are extended the whole computor is slanted at an angle which provides a space for heat dissipation. Here there is no such space since the base remains horizontal. The angle of the tilt is also very acute, and may not be sufficiently comfortable for those who are used to the tilting angle provided by the 75x series. I didnt ask whether the angle could be varied but it does not appear so given that the two metal clips could be seen. Wilson Yip <wyip@nicotra.com.sg>
