    Picked it up from BB for $850. So far so good. Screen is perfect and man, this thing is glossy red! I love it. This a sexy laptop. Everything seems to be working well.

    My only complaint is the way the AC plug sits. If I sit the laptop down on something, I need to twist the plug so it's not angled down. I wonder if I can get a different plug for it.

    And I do notice the "fan issue" people are complaining about. This isn't a problem. It's a fan, it's supposed to come on when the machine is doing some work. It's a lot quieter than my last Presario R3000 which had TWO fans whirring all the time.

    Looking forward to a lot of use out of this thing. This keyboard rocks!
