  • Never one to judge a Book by its cover, we're glad for a chance to peek under the, um, lid.

  • Right away, we notice two cables tethering the display to the motherboard. Fortunately, they're conveniently located along one edge—meaning we really can flip this thing open like a book—and we easily dispatch their press-on connectors.

  • Unfortunately, these cables lead directly under the motherboard, which looks to be upside-down.

  • We do get a look at a small fan channel, which pairs with matching foam on the back of the display to direct the air just so.

  • The timing couldn't have been better—we're still a little heated about the motherboard situation and need to cool off.
