since i'm sxps 16 user, let me comment on it...
ya, u r right, it's a bit hot but is not a big deal for me as my previous laptop is compaq presario v3751au. i would say the heat is manageable. 1 thing that i already clarified a lot of times. the main source of the heat is from SOUTHBRIDGE which located underneath ur touchpad, NOT from PROCESSOR and GRAPHIC CARD. as for the performance i dont think i need to comment on that. the subwoofer is quite nice for a laptop. if u r basshead then i think u will like it.the dvd rom is extremely cool, in fact is my 1st time see this kind of dvd rom on a laptop. normally u need to press a button then wait for the trail to pop out but for sxps16, u just need to slightly push ur cd/dvd inside the rom and it will auto bring ur cd/dvd in. comfortable keyboard, quite quiet when u r typing and with back-lit, it looks so freaky cool. now let's talk about design and built. the design is nice, especially black but with 1 drawback, fingerprint collector( i clean my laptop once every 2 days).i would say it's 50% plastic and 50% aluminium. it has aluminium base and u can feel the metal most of the time.for me it's quite solid la..nearly forget about the screen.the screen also not bad and it's full hd. i will give 9/10 for this laptop. it definitely worth for ur money

Hey can you guys convince me which one a better one for me.. I really want to try the Mac. But I'm always with Windows since I was young. I play games, like tf2, l4d, CoD4 and such. Is Macbook Pro 15" good for these games? Usually I would just do my assignment or internet browsing and music other than gaming. Another question would be, Dell Studio XPS 16 and Macbook Pro 15". Which would suit me more?  Dell Studio XPS 16 gets heaty quite easily and often |

i say Dell Studio 15 is already good enuf...
when comes to Mac, for the price u pay, u can get a much better spec laptop...
for eg, for the same performance, BenQ S42 is only slightly more than rm3k (rm3250 to be exact)...
