A review of the Lenovo IdeaPad U550 notebook has been posted over at Notebook Review. 'The U550 has a traditional notebook shape with no outstanding design features. It is extraordinarily thin and light for a 15.6-inch notebook; it measures just one inch thin on average. The plastic used on the chassis is of reasonable quality and did not feel cheap when I tapped it with my fingernail. The plastic used around the palm rest area is smooth and has an antiglare coating; fingerprints and dust show up rather easily on it. The back of the lid has a textured matte plastic that does not show fingerprints and dust. The only glossy plastic found on this notebook is the screen surround, which was almost impossible to keep clean.'
