The keyboard of the notebook was already defective upon delivery. Specifically, the space bar was only with considerable effort "pressed". Conventional Tap would have been impossible. In addition, the touchpad is -vermutlich generell- very rickety. Thus, the notebook goes back to Amazon.
Otherwise, I found the device to be not even that bad. The look is nice, the keyboard worked (apart from the space key) well and the speed was decent (Windows 8). Suspend / Resume works. The unit is completely silent.
