    Hello,
    I am thinking of purchasing the SONY VAIO S Series VPCSA21GX laptop for college. It seems great as the screen is very hi-res, the keyboard seems nice, and the internals seem like they will do fine for what i need (word processing, web surfing). My only concern is heat. I have looks at pictures of the laptop and these are some vents on the bottom and I think there is one on the back, but you can never really tell with this stuff. Can anyone tell me how it probably does with heat?
    Thanks!

    There is a thread on this subject on the first or second page of this forum. I suggest that you take a look at that thread.

    It heats and cools like any other 13" laptop.
