Yes they do. Acer is not too too bad, I would go with an HP over any of them. In the last year, HP has really stepped it up in terms of quality in thier notebooks. Dell is always there too but is quite pricey.

nice laptop but the carbon fiber cover has little, if anything, to do with the weight of that notebook. The body plastic is just as light as the carbon… and there is very little of it. Most of the weight comes from whats inside.

I think you are wasting a extra $1000 on bling carbon BS and a Ferrari Logo but whatever… ppl can do what they like.
