My laptop, similar Taiwanese brand, is fairly new and already beginning to look like this. I don’t know why they have to be such cheapskates with the crappy fake metal finish. Somehow we can find enough aluminum to make disposable Coke cans out of it but it’s too expensive for a laptop casing.
Model and price is unimportant. But if metal’s too expensive and they can’t do a fake chrome finish that doesn’t wear off in 5 minutes then then they should just stick to white or black.

What model?
It sounds like a really cheap model.
