The Compal HGL-30 has nothing cheap feeling to it. There is no rippling of the screen even with consistent and hard pressure on the back of the screen. The screen hinges are solid almost to a fault. The hinges take a fair amount of pressure to open the screen, and if the screen is opened too fast then the bottom of the computer will pull up from the table until the weight brings it back down. The computer is made of all plastic but in my opinion (and this is very subjective) this is a very stylish computer. The back screen is of high quality plastic with a greenish blue cover that is very hard to show with pictures, but is no doubt better looking when seen live.
