And they double as a portable lap heater!  :)  Seriously, sometimes I 
appreciate it, like when I'm in a datacenter and freezing my arse off. 
Most of the time it's just quite uncomfortable.  All that aside, I'm 
still very happy with my Macbook Pro.  If I had some spare cash I'd 
probably replace one of my desktops with one of these Toshiba cheapies 
though.  $1300 is a great deal for a 17" "portable" no matter how you 
slice it.
