How's the fan noise? I've got quite accustomed to silent fans on my current laptop
if i have it on a table, it’s fine, mostly silent. if i have it on my lap blocking the vents then it can get noisier and hotter pretty fast
Ah that is irritating, I tend to have my ThinkPad on my lap every now and again and it's usually because it's in a public place without a desk. Would be pretty annoying for the fan to suddenly go crazy in public
it isn’t so loud that other people would notice, i don’t think - and usually just a bit of readjustment of my position is enough to unblock the vents
don’t let me dissuade you from buying the best laptop i’ve owned!
Hm, I think I need to try and track down someone local who's got one and see for myself to be honest, I would guess places like pc world won't have tester models
