    Getting around 460 $ + taxes.

    Now , I read lots of stuff about i3-330M heating up pretty quickly , is it true.
    If this is the case, should I go back to T6600 or rather Core 2 Duo.?

    The i3 and i5 are fine The i7 is where the heat becomes a problem with throttling down its speed. I wouldnt buy a laptop today without a Core i processor. I have a 1545 with a i5 and its just fine (wicked fast). You may notice the fan kicks on regularly to cool it down but thats not a problem and has been programed to be that way.
