Thanks for the clarification. I had perused the Wacom partner list and the thought that Averatec was affiliated with one of the listed partners had crossed my mind, but had no way of finding out. This helps immensely, especially since most other complaints I've read about (keyboard, heat, possible battery life, etc) have turned out to be moot points, after having checked it out firsthand. The keyboard I found to be actualy rather comfortable, as far as SFF notebooks go. And I was rather pleasantly surprised with the screen, which was much less susceptible to color shift than the M205.

Now all that remains is the 3D performance, which would really be more of a bonus than a necessity, at this point,since my primary uses for it would be for digital painting/sketching, and notetaking, when in slate mode.
