[~*77*~]

The Latitude D410 has a height of 1.25", a width of 11", a depth of 9.4", and a weight of 3.8 lbs, making it the smallest laptop I have ever worked with. As a matter of fact, it is less than half the weight of the IBM ThinkPad G40 I was previously using. The frame and LCD cover are a magnesium alloy; while the case shell is plastic, it seems to be quite sturdy and not at all flimsy feeling. Overall I like the looks of this gray and black laptop, especially the black lid latch and the 1/4 black seam below it that wraps the whole of the exterior--resembling pin-striping on a sports car. The magnesium alloy in particular should be quite durable; although, as noted above, mine does have a few scratches on the LCD cover. The LCD hinges are robust and hold the LCD firmly in place dead center like you would expect they should, but don't always do on some other notebooks. monster-hardware.com
