Got a dud by N/A on newegg.com May 7, 2012

Only 3.2 pounds including optical drive...Speedy performance...Nice screen and keyboard...Good battery life...WiDi....No backlit keyboard...No Bluetooth...Noisy fan....The Toshiba Portege R835-P88 shows that an ultraportable can still kick ultrabook butt...The Toshiba Portege R835-P88 ($849.99 list) is the latest version of a model that's been around for years......
