I want to know the following
1. What is the thermal characteristics of these laptop, will it heat up when kept on a lap? My current Dell Laptop just heats up when kept in the bed and working. Looks like it takes air through the bottom!!!

2. Can I connect these laptop to TV when the lid is closed. Basically use the TV as the screen for the laptop when it is closed so that I can use a wireless keyboard sit in the couch and use the TV as screen.

3. Can I have a dense battery to increase the usage time from 4 to say 6 or 8 hrs?

4. Does this have 1394 interface to connect camcorders?

5. Do these laptops have chic keyboard?

Welcome to our forums :)

1. All laptops produce heat, but what feels reasonably cool to me might feel hot to you. They're not exceptionally hot and by no means hotter than the average laptop.

2. Not tested but I believe this can be configured in the Windows Control Panel/Power Management.

3. We don't offer larger capacity batteries at present, but you can always order a spare battery.

4. This model does not support 1394 firewire unfortunately.

5. I'm not familiar with the term "chic keyboard" - do you mean a stylish keyboard? If so, of couse :)
