Anyone had experience with this machine? It's interesting to me that a lot of sites have already reviewed the r200 but I can't find reviews anywhere of the s100. A friend of mine ordered one and sent it back. He said that it ran to hot and had a noisy fan, but in terms of specs, it's almost exactly what I'm looking for. The only things I don't like are:
1. the included drive is a cd writer, not a dvd/rw, and there doesn't seem to be a way to upgrade this at time of purchase. This is somewhat of a show stopper for me as I currently don't have a dvd/rw on any of my machines, and the way I figure it, if I'm going to spend $2000 on a new notebook that includes a drive, it may as well be a dvd/rw.
2. I wish it had integrated bluetooth but I could live with throwing a dongle into my laptop case.
Other than that, I would be interested in thoughts anyone else might have about the machine.
TIA,
