    Depending on what you want to do the HP's limited capacity hard drive might be a deal breaker (it was for me). Only PATA 60 GB which would have been state of the art about 7 years ago.

    Don't know about the heat for either model but the reviews of the Lenovo I've read don't mention any heating problems -- care to share a link?

    My S10 does get a bit warm, nothing too bad though.

    It helps to turn it to "Balanced" in power options, down clocks the processor a little.

    I had my S10 almost one month and I have not noticed any excessive heat at all. I also have the HP2133 now that one really gets kinda hot all over and the exhaust is also very hot too.
