    Just a few questions, for those that own one already;

    I've heard some reports that the speakers are not loud and are of poor quality - are these claims substantiated in your experience?

    How hot does the laptop get? 1 review I read said that the bottom becomes very hot (too ot for the lap) after a few hours - any truth to this?

    The build quality is said to be excellent - would you agree?

    It's either the vaio fw21e or the toshiba a300-1bz....although the toshiba has much better speakers and I rate toshiba's reliability, the fw21e just appeals to me. I am in the UK if that matters.
