Powerhouse, Sleekest model but hopeless keyboard and poor hinges

I bought this from Nehru Place, Delhi last year with Rs.5K more than the offer here. It was one of the finest design, I have ever come across... Pros: unusual resolution 1792 x 768 (instead of 1366 x 768. Cinematic experience is superb, windows experience index is 5.9 (hard disk) the rest are 6.6 and above upto 7.4 . less than 2 Kilos, slim design with a sexy look of both metal and rubber combination, long battery life upto 6 hrs. Cons: However, the keyboard is hopeless... no reflex at all... its like you are used to sleep on a luxurious mattress and all of a sudden you are sleeping on a 2 inch mattress.. you don't feel like typing... and you would end up lots of mistakes until you get the hang of it in a couple of months... In less than 1 year, now I have a problem... the hinges are falling apart...the joining of metal and rubber body is the problem. When I open the laptop, there is a big gap in the body and the screen gets shaky. I guess this is the common problem with this model. I now live in Switzerland. So cannot get the international service... apparently I was told I have international warranty... but actually it was not it seems..so I have to live with it. if you do not have to type a lot and if you handle the hinges really really carefully go for this "beauty and beast" .

some more gap between display & keyboard

some good gap between the display and the key board would be good as when you operate the number keys you tend to touch the display screen inadvertendly which may result in accidental damage to the display screen. this is what i had observed in just a few days of acquiring the laptop,.
