I was gonna sell my x31 and replaced it with this x60. after 3 weeks with the x60, I just don't like it as much as my x31.

The main reason I looked for an upgrade was that my x31 couldn't handle HD video stuffs(h264 or hd rips). it turned out that I was using the wrong codec. I can watch HD just fine on my x31 now.

here is the spec:

Why? Because the X60 generates too much heat? The screen isn't as good?

yea, the heat on the right palm rest is not a great match with my sweaty hands. my hands sweat even in the winter time...

Why don't you contact IBM and try to return it?

oh...it is cheaper for me to sell it than return it. ibm charges 15% open box fee for return..

should I try to get them waive it?

Of course you won't loose anything for just trying.
