    That looks like an awesome deal. But, there are a few people who have complaints about heat. I'm not sure about how hot it is, but if it is really hot, you can return or exchange it at BestBuy within 14 days. I'd say give it a go, and if there really is a heat issue, you will have no problem returning/exchanging it :)

    It's the same thing as the mx6421 but with a slightly bigger hard drive and another memory stick. You can get an mx6421 for about 700, and it might be chaper just to upgrade the memory stick and stick out with a 80 gb hard drive instead of a 100 gb hard drive.
