3.5Kg makes you feel like you are going to school!
This thing is going to beat you up and steal your lunch money.
I carried around a Dell D610 alot (2.5kg) and it worked quite well. If you can afford this you can probably afford a proper bag for it too, and all that in 3.5 kg is quite impressive.
Copper looks nice though.
If it is pointless to you it doesn't mean it is pointless to who can use this.
If I had $10K just sitting around I would consider loading one up to the hilt and buying it.
Besides, this is TPU ... when did "extreme at any cost" go out of vogue here?
p.s.
So, what's the price??
