    Hi!
    Recently I've got my own g51vx. It's amazing! But nightly when I look the lid, I can see lamps through the white lid plastic. My question - is it normal? To explain correctly I made some photos:
    1. Photo in a lot of light. Like on a photos in Internet.

    2. Photo without light with huge exposure. Really lamps aren't so bright. Big exposure made them brighter for clear explanation of my question...

    That'd be bleeding and it's normal especially since the lid is white. One solution would be to order a darker lid (I think ASUS' e-store has a black one) to replace the one you've got.

    One reason of that notebook buying is the best designed lid. I though to disassemble the lid and put some not-transparent material between lamps and white plastic... Bad idea or no?
