The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Why do they have exhausts on the keyboard surface of the notebook?
    This makes it frustrating if I want to leave the notebook fully powered on, but lid closed. A few times I have closed the lid for only a few minutes, and returned to a very hot feeling screen and trim.

    Engineering mistake or what?
    The new ones don't have this flaw I hope.

    Bump. The new models have better placement right?

    And when/why has searching been turned off?
