When I was looking at notebooks I was considering the Asus W7V, which looks like a (hardware based) clone of the Macbook. The Lenovo books seem ok. I had a 17" widescreen Toshiba that was stable, but only had a 90 day warranty and came with way too much bloatware.

I don't know how much I would believe that it's because the battery is located too close to a heat source, since the new Apple notebooks are well known for heat problems and none of them have toasted yet.

Well, I'm dealing with Dell laptop after Dell laptop that runs insanely hot (too hot to put on one's lap after five minutes.) Never used an Apple laptop, so I can't compare, but my Acer, while warm after 45 minutes of being on my lap, is still bearable.
