    Craming desktop class componenets into a laptop enclosure is always a tricky proposition.

    Build a giant bong cooler, strap some casters on it, and you've got a "mobile" water cooling solution.

    This is not good, for such an expensive laptop to screw up so easily. I'll still be happy to accept the other one, though. :)

    You'd think HP would be more careful with building the laptops they KNEW were going out for reviews.

    You wouldn't have to worry about it though tim.... IE6 won't push that hardware nearly enough to make it even warm.

    I was hoping your D&D session would be accomplished from the quiet comfort and safety of your own room this week, but alas, it is not to be. :(

    Really? Is this a surprise? HP sucks, Dell isn't much better, along with several others. Either way it = Epic fail on HPs part since it was brand new and wasn't abused and it was for a review.

    So what's the news on this HP? Haven't seen any new reports for a few days now.

    It broke on Thanksgiving (25th) 2 whole business days (depending on who you are) since then. Probably hasn't even made it to HP yet :)

    Just my guess though.

    I think I deserve this machine because I actually watched the videos for the AMD video card challenge. Plus I'm poor. Plus you owe me for not coming to NYC.

    Doesn't this computer have a warranty where the technician comes to YOU to fix it? I read that in the story.
