Well I have had mixed results. The 1st IQ506 I got was crap. I had system recoveries and OS lock ups continuously. I also lost the touchscreen completely and the Keyboard LED light was intermittent. I called HP they swore the PC was bulletproof. Well after working with the techs at HP I finally said enough and exchanged the PC. The nmew one appears to be working fine, time will tell. I did see the DVD comments and will be checking that immediately. WHile I feel there are some serious QUALITY issues with all HP products (I also got a lemon laptop from them) I do think this PC is a very nice and unique layout. I would hope that for the $1500+ per unit HP will put some serious minds behind correcting and flaws. After working On PC hardware now for years both in the build and repair areas I felt the PC problem APPEARED (my opinion) to be a power related issue. The faulty one I had appeared to be having intermittent failures throughout the system. In my experience this is usually power supply related. I cannot confirm this as I am not paid to fix HP's PCs for them ;) I would bet that a larger and more robust power supply may correct these "lemons". Take care and good luck!

Really tempted to get one of these. I've got a 17" Powerbook G4 that's getting a tad slow right now, so a core 2 duo would do me good.

Aww bummer, now they decide to include 1gb of ram after I bought one with only 512mb.
