The _feel_ is very different though, even if the dimensions aren’t numerically. It was around half a cm at its thinnest, it was 250g lighter, and 23mm less deep.

I think at those sizes, what reads as small differences give an outsized experiential factor.

I loved mine but I'd be lying if I said it gave me three years of acceptable performance.

Sure, I can blame Chrome and JS, but ultimately, the core 2 duo and 8GB RAM did not keep up very long.
