They should not let put a US flag or US made sticker on this kind of products if its not 100% US made. I would buy it because of it just to see the notebook fails a simple drop. That is not even the height of a table. Im really impressed on how bad this product is. My cheap plastic acer takes better then that. Wow, that truly is a China product.
