=== Dana1 is now known as DanaG
DanaGI can't wait until this summer .... when I get my new laptop, I am soooooo going to get a case skin of the Heron.  I just wish this wallpaper were included along with the other one:  "color-grey-translucent.svg" -- link is just above the GDM thingy.  Note: this SVG chokes firefox for quite a while.01:08
troy_sDanaG: Consider laser etching if you get a metal exterior.03:40
troy_sDanaG: There are some amazing and beautiful applications of that technique on laptops.03:40
DanaGHmm, but that may be more permanent than I'd want.03:40

troy_sThose are three of the more compositionally elegant etchings.03:44
troy_sDanaG: I have considered doing some custom airbrush work on a few of my friends exterior shells as per request... but it is a heck of a tough / tricky thing to do perfectly.03:45
DanaGHmm, and I can look at the service guide to see if the lid is a purchasable part.03:45
DanaGDang, not purchasable separately from the screen itself.03:52
DanaGI'd have to think about that idea of laser etching.03:52
DanaGANd while at it, I also discovered that if you purchase without WWAN, you don't get the antennas for it, and can't add WWAN later -- but then again, I won't likely use that feature.03:54
