Thanks to the multiple screwing of the keyboard unit to the full body, the keys sit tight in the case and don't clatter.
The single keys are, as in the predecessor, embedded directly into the case and have a soft stroke with a palpable pressure point. However, most multi-touch features are still reserved for Mac OS X. Merely the Window drivers for the glass trackpad have been slightly improved, whereas the use of an external mouse under Windows isn't necessarily required anymore.

I needed to install a firmware update to enable this type of boot. My computer was shipped without the ability to BIOS boot an operating systems. Note: This version of Fedora requires a BIOS to boot the computer. I did not attempt to install Fedora, but this option was presented to me. To wake, I needed to tap the power button.
