At first I thought it was mental conditioning from this SD thread, but my hand actually moved the cursor while typing if I rested my palms on the laptop like most normal people. Had someone else try it as well, and the same thing. I think it's definitely an issue for people with small-medium sized hands. Larger hands seem to be able to rest on the edge of the trackpad without as much phantom cursor moving. Deal killer...bummer.
Go for the 32gb model since the memory is soldered and not upgradable.
EDIT: IF you can go down an inch to a 16" screen, you'll find a lot more deals than on 17" laptops. Examples: https://www.costco.com/lenovo-sli...76663.htm

However, I have finally seen the light about what others mentioned with the track pad placement. I could not understand what they were talking about. Finally had to go and really type on the thing like I'd use it to see the issue. And yes, there is an issue. The track pad is about an inch (Or less) too far to the right and my right hand hits the track pad when typing. The 16" doesn't have this issue.
I was thinking of buying the laptop to try it out but the track pad issue is so bad I know I'll just return it. Not going to even bother. No way would I keep this. What their engineers were thinking I have no idea. NO other laptop in Costco had this issue except for this 17" LG Gram. I walked around both their display tables and yes, checked every one of them. Ridiculous if you ask me. Good for those out there who aren't bothered by this as otherwise it's a nice (non gaming) laptop.
You have been warned haha!
iwheela
But why is this computer so much less $? What am I missing?
