Q2: How do I get a Logitech M310 mouse without buying also an MK520 keyboard?Amazon?
Q3: If I add an mSSD disk, is there any way of stopping certain applications from using it, even though they have lots of disk access to a small set of files? Very much depends on the app
Q4: Why is there no glossy screen for any of the full HD screen options? Just the way its going now really with PCS, for whatever reason
