Problems? See this thread at archive.org.
The only bad part about substitution is you have to cancel and reorder to do it, so your wait would begin again, a couple of guys on this thread tried to do directly substitute and HP said no dice.

Hello everyone,
I am new here, but I have been following this thread since 2/21. First and foremost thanks for everyone especially Tacjam and JosephCruz for your inputs. They have made ordering the X6000 a lot easier [] To Tacjam take care in Iraq and thank you along with others with you for all the sacrifice you do for all of us.
I just wanted to reply to the notecase topic as I have ordered the following bag:

I don't have a cooler but have found a way to just prop the laptop in a 45 angle to optimize the dissipation of the heat directly to the air. If anyone is interested, please and I will share otherwise you might think me crazy for what I came up with...[] Anyways I was compeled to add something to this thread because I get so much from it everyday especially now that I am still waiting for mine. Ordered 2/21 "supposed" to ship 3/14... it better or else!!![}

Ok but don't take my word for it just go to your local staples or office depot and look for yourself. Now you have to use your imagination for a bit here...the problem for me was that this notebook gets hot and the best cooling solution in my opinion even without using fans is to just prop the whole laptop so that it actually acts like a normal screen. When you prop it up the 3 fans in the back are free to dissipate the heat into the air without the need of a laptop stand. So what the solution? Prop it up with a cheap portable easel. This one from staples is only around $15 BUT you have to mod it a little...

What you have to do is bend the back rod so that the whole tripod will recline back a little and expand the base and cradle your notebook with the two foldable plastic clips in the front. You have to put something soft on the clips to prevent scratching of the paint, but otherwise it works!!! I have tried on an old laptop and even tried to put it on my bed and purposely tried to tip it over and didn't! If won't tip there then it will surely be stable on a table.
At this optimum angle you have the screen propped higher and the heat is dissipated for better cooling!! Kills two birds with one stone!
And the stand is portable fits in any computer case! Again see for yourself decide if you think my solution will work for you []
