Received at the relay point in less than 24 hours, the original MSI packaging is armoured (double cardboard box). In terms of performance, it lives up to my expectations. The only major fault I've noticed so far is the lack of direct access to the PGup, PGdown, start and end keys. But that's how it seems to be on most laptops these days, just like the lack of a micro SD drive.
