    Dang, just finished writing it and I accidently pressed back and lost everything. Anyway...

    I'll make this quick. The computer looks and feels really nice, and I bet you guys already know that. The heat problem and the rattling battery are still here though. Maybe I'm unfortunate and got the defective one, but my s560 generated enough heat that I wouldn't want to rest my right hand on it nor would I rest it on my lap. All this is when the laptop idled, so you can probably imagine what will happen if it runs intensive programs. The fan seemed to run pretty quietly though, so yeah, go ahead and buy the new s series if decibel is your only concern.
