“Anyone else having issues with this machine getting HOT? Had it for 3 days before returning it. The BB salesman acted real surprised, especially since it's a solid state drive. Thinking of buying another one to see if the problem persists. Thoughts?”

yes small laptops with powerful CPUs will get hot. Excess heat is a tradeoff for performance. Put some pants on and it won't burn your thighs.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Sometimes, depends on how many windows open and what they are it seems. A lot of Outlook apps take more resources I think so runs hotter with them in use perhaps. Typically if just on internet/browsers it stays fairly cool. Thin profile of machine of course means less room inside for air circulation and less casing between your lap and inner components. Not really any different than other laptops I have had.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, this machine can get very hot in the upper-left corner of the keyboard area where the processor is. I returned this machine due to the loose trackpad issue but the heat was unwelcome also. I recommend looking into the Microsoft Surface Book, much better quality.
