    HI, I am wondering how the Vaio Canvas devices are holding up after about 6 months to 1 year of use.

    I know i had the first get Surface Pro and it was a great device. However after 3-6 months the device started to get very hot. Even with nothing open it was not pleasant to use.

    These devices are so small and once the fans get some dust on them they can really burn up. I noticed the canvas is possible to open, which is nice so the fans can be cleaned.

    Anyone had a canvas for some time?

    Having it on regularly, even sometimes doing things like rendered for 1-2 hour periods?

    Thanks

    I've written about it a few times on the other forum, but cool as a cucumber running multiple VMs and it's been all around the world (literally) since I travel for work. Got it in June of 2015, no issues. Not sure why you would even think this is a problem.
