HP HDX16 & HDX18

[BuckFuddy]

So, does anyone here own one of these laptops? How do you like it? Any heat/noise issues or other annoyances?
I will be picking one of these up soon and just wanted to see if anyone else here has one.

I just got a HDX18. It's quiet and stays pretty cool. My only real annoyance is the touchpad. I had to turn the sensitivity all the way up, but now I use a BT mouse.

Nice to know that heat isn't an issue! Btw, what do you mainly use the laptop for? Do you watch Blu-rays on it?
Would you mind posting the specs? I was checking out the Acer Aspire 8930G also, but decided I liked the HDX18 better.

I use it for games and movies. It's usually hooked up to the 47" lcd in the bedroom.
