Ditto here!  I've had my STR-D1090 for almost 2 months and I'm still 
thrilled with it.  Mine gets pretty toasty, I admit.  It's never shorted out
on me, though, and I run it pretty hard.  For $530, it's got a phenomenal
number of features that I just love, and the digitally processed surround
sound is great...  I think I'm going to just buy a small power supply fan
to put on top of it.  (Just to be safe.)
