    Bought the new DV6 a couple weeks back. Disappointed with the build quality so far.

    Does anyone else get annoyed with the comfort after having used the machine for consecutive hours? This fake metal trim around the base starts to really nag at my hand and wrists. Probably doesn't help that I am left handed and have less space on the left side as is.

    The edge of the machine just seems to be a little to sharp for concecutive hour use.

    I Actually really like it compared to the dv5t-1000 I used to have. Definitely an upgrade. I'm right handed though so maybe that's just me. I also don't rest the computer so that my wrists hit the edge very much. When I'm using the computer I'm usually gaming or programming and my hand's aren't idle where my wrist would be sitting on the edge.
