Looks like they took a step sideways. + µSD + 2nd USB A port o still no exchangable storage (M.2?) o still no keyboard backlight o not sure about the new keyboard layout - no more trackpoint (I'll wait for version 3 then) - no more dedicated HDMI (not much of a problem, but seeing how much empty space is wasted on the right edge to make it look thin, including an HDMI port and a bunch of other ports would have been a piece of cake) - fan outlet looks pointless (it's blowing right against the display hinge)
