    It does look like a good deal, but I've heard a lot of report about overheating.

    1920x1080 resolution on a 15" monitor? u are gonna need such a high dpi setting to be able to read anything that any application not designed for adjustable dpi´s like many older websites or programs are gonna look like total cr@p.

    other than that, it sounds like a very good deal in terms of bang for bucks.

    Not true. I've had no problems with applications or web sites on mine. IT nicely fits a two-page layout in Word or Acrobat, or a document and a browser window side-by-side.
