I have several laptops and had a netbook up until recently.

I love them, but they tend to get a little too warm after extended use, and hard drive failure is more prevalent since the drive is smaller and subject to more heat than a normal desktop drive is.

We use my laptop much more than the desktop, but use it as a desktop replacement. It is on from about 5 am until 2am the next morning. This one is going on its fourth birthday and has never failed.

I bought one of those under laptop fan coolers at Staples and it solves the heat up problem.
