I've had my 9860 since this past December, and I thought it might be a good time to see how all of the other 9860s are holding up.
Luckily, thus far, I've had virtually no problems. The machine runs like a dream and sees plenty of heavy usage. I've also been using the 6800go at higher clock speeds since its second day with no problems. Runs cool, runs fast. Of course, I thought the wireless was shot for a while...but it turns out that Fn-F11 was actually a shortcut for disabling it (oops).
The build quality is really tops as it remains in flawless condition (outside of fingerprints on the outer cover).
I also use a small Acer TM3000 (very small, actually) for work. They make a good team, with the 9860 staying home ready for entertainment while the 3000 tags along for actual work.
I guess my only complaint revolves around the soundcard and its inability to produce quality sound from the headphone output (it sounds very tinny and bass-less). I simply ended up using an external soundcard instead, which fixed the problem...
Anyone else still having good fortune with their 9860s?
