Thank you for the info.  Mine does not qualify, and most of the problems have been case warping, battery life, thing falling a part and it just plain not turning on.  It remainds me of an old Ducati I used to have, but in this case I can not say screw it and just go buy a different brand, so I feel pretty screwed right now.
