    Hello All,

    I am planning for G60t CTO(customized to order).
    With following specs I'm getting it at 610$(incl tax, shipping).
    I consider it quite good deal, and would like to know if anybody has any inputs on this.
    I could not find any reviews(other than on HP site itself).
    One of the reviews on HP site mentioned about heating problem("it does overhaeat pretty bad").

    I would like to have your comments on this.
    Being quite lucrative offer, I am doubtful and asking is there anything bad with this? :)
    Is HP not getting good sales for this product, so it is promoting? Or has got any problems??

    Please comment.
    Thanks in advance :)

    Cheers,
    -Sachin

    It is funny I came across this post, This past Sunday my fiancee just bought this laptop for her son. I have to say for the little I played with it and what he was doing on it the laptop is not bad. I do seem to think the wireless card to a better job on picking up wifi and holding it. I have a Dell at home it does connect wifi but very low and drops the connection, yet with my HDX18t I get great signal and it holds it well. We have not tried it on the this one as the wifi was down at the neighbors...lol but it sounds good, runs quick and does not look to bad. I did not feel a lot of heat the screen was clear and looked good. I will try to get more info as he will be using it more this week. All in all it not a bad system for the price.
