    my s6210 seems to hot or is it just like tat? i know lithium ion batteries die out slowly because of heat. any other way of taking care of that? Also does the warranty cover a dead battery?

    Defining hot in a notebook is like defining spicy at a Mexican joint. It should be warm, but should not feel like it's going to burn you.

    My Fujitsu S6210 feels pretty warm, but not hot... but the AC adapter on the other hand i would consider hot... Heres how i'd define it.. if you can sand putting it up against the back of your hand, or cheek... its warm, if you have to pull it away i'd consider it hot.

    The places that will get warm or hot on the S6210 will be the bottom left corner where the harddrive is, and top left corner where the processor and fan is. The battery is on the bottom left and doesn't really get warm at all.

    I was just going to ask someone about this. My 6210 does the same thing. I thought my fan wasn't working or something but I guess im not the only one with this problem. I guess its just supposed to be like that, but it bugs the heck out of me!
