Question:
ASUS Z83V or Acer 4202?
Ok i have the Z83V now, but unfortunately I accidentally placed a 1.0-1.25cm long hairline scratch near the bottom ledge. The unit is 1 month old. It is fine and not totally noticable but it still bugs me. And knowing me, keeping my notebooks for years in prime condition I want it fixed. But it will cost me $495USD to do that - yes thats right, OUCH! Everyone I have asked thus far, have said its not worth it.
So im thinking well, why not sell it instead? Just deduct that $495 from what I paid and a bit more and take the hit, get another one. But looking at other ones, I came across Acer, and said why not get something cheaper and duo core?

Your really letting a little scratch force you to sell it? Don't you like your machine? If the scratch is bothering you why not put some cool looking decals on it to cover over the scratch. ;)
