    It's mostly magnesium bottom and plastic palm surface. I'm looking at mine right now=)

    Btw, can someone check their battery wear level? Mine is 3% wear level when I receive v131 brand new.

    I'm waiting for a Business outlet coupon code. Then I will order the V131. Wish they would post some soon...

    I've only seen one V131 show up one time at their Outlet. Probably because they are fairly new. Plenty of V130 though.

    Depends on. Here in Hungary I received it with one 4GB stick (Vostro 3350), and a friend of mine also got it the same way (XPS L502x). In this case I extremely suggest you to upgrade to 8GB so it can use dual channel!
