    I am looking at a DV66xx laptop with a Core 2 CPU and 200 gb drive. What is the heat issue with the DV65xx/DV66xx laptops with the Core 2 CPU? I know HP has had problems with the DV65xx laptops and heat, but have they solved some or all of the issues with the DV66xx series?

    I am most concerned with the heat on the hand-rest as this makes using the computer an issue.

    Thanks

    I don't have any heat issues on my DV6500T. It is always warm to the touch, and it's only on the left side since the hard drive is enclosed just beneath it.
