Emile, you are correct about the flaws and cooling pads. The problem as I see it is that the low end machines are not put together well. Many are made overseas and the manufacturer is not interested in making changes. They have a contract to make 10,000 and that is what they do. I suppose a laptop owner can write to the manufacturer in China with their complaint. :-]
