No, it's just the absurdity of it. Thin = WEAK....bends and breaks
easily. Thin computers must leave out JACKS to plug things into like
memory sticks, disk drives, the touchscreen interface board that turned
my NC10 into a touch tablet...(c;]

No soldering at all, but installation isn't for people in a hurry. The
plug the screen plugs into will NOT feed through the right screen hinge
which requires disassembly and laying in the wires with TWO wifi coax
cables....not fun. Be VERY picky about sticking the touchscreen down to
the LCD screen. There is no fudge factor room for error. If anything,
stick it down a little low so you can click the tray buttons. A 25-
point precision screen calibration makes it perfect!
Works great with both WinXPSP3 and Ubuntu Linux...plug n play! $US96
and cheap shipping....
