Bad idea--The fabric surface is an insulator and the fan vents may be obstructed. Any high performance chip would get very hot in this setting.Originally posted by: RaNDoMMAI
It also overheats easy when he has it on a bed.
Don't buy it at NewEgg. According to other posters above, CDW and Buy.com have it for less at this time.Originally posted by: faziwazi
i want to buy this laptop but the price is now at 1379... should i just buy at this price or should i wait for it to drop.
i think if i wait for it to drop then it could be discountinued and id be screwed.. im positive i want this laptop i just want the best deal!!!
any suggestions?

Maybe so, but CDW is a HUGE company. As in Fortune 500. Perhaps they do have poor customer service but in the case of a defective laptop you're not going to be dealing with a penny-saving Mom & Pop shop.
Final (?) update: Acer shipped the laptop back to me. Took exactly 7 days. According to Acer, the CPU had to be replaced. CPU-Z says it's a Banias.Originally posted by: Mermaidman

FYI, I received the laptop on Friday. It was DOA. I'll have to either RMA to NewEgg or serviced thru Acer.
Update: I called NewEgg and was told that for laptops, NewEgg does not accept returns or exchanges. All problems are to be directed to manufacturor . . .
