    That's what I thought. It's just something I heard and that I wanted to verify.

    well quanta is the worlds largest notebook manufacturer meaning the chassis and motherboard.

    I mean your quanta ok, is a model they made that nobody wanted to buy.

    they make lenovo thinkpads, dell latitude, hp whosiwhatsis toshiba tecra apple macbook fujitsu lifebook..around 40% of notebooks look like a quanta... and another 25% are made by compal.

    this machine does look like a quanta. it looks related to the kn1 to me. do you think it looks like your machine? these hinges are different but look at the other machines. they are all uniform and this machine is different in its led placement and appearance.

    the big spotting part is the grid on the right side vent that is the grid quanta uses

    next you see the white machine right next to it, same appearance.

    here is a quanta kn1 leds right in front of touchpad.

    That's the same chassis as the S262. I think they look different than the others because these are 12" notebooks and needed a different design to fit everything in.

    the machine next to it is another MSI. And incase your thinking, MSI is an ODM, not an OEM. No relation with Quanta here.
