Good specs but i'm sorry you  opted for an HP :-/

What's the issue with HP laptops? (i'm asking honestly, since I haven't heard anything bad from them here in Portugal)

Everyone I know has had horrible problems with HP laptops...but that was a a couple years back so I'm not sure if their laptops have increased quality or not.

You're right, I've had terrible overheating problems too! That is, when I've used my HP laptop on my bed or on a mat, or... You get the idea. Anywhere where it can't actually get new air. Other than that, it's been working perfectly. I wouldn't say I've had a single problem.

That would be a problem with any laptop. No airflow means cooling is very reduced.

Yeah, even new ones will suffer from overheating in those conditions. Not that would bother me, I've already got a nifty Targus fan pad from my previous laptop which solves any kind of overheating issue.
