    I'm going to pick up my customized HP Dv9600t from the FedEx facility after work and plan on stopping by Best Buy to grab a couple Blu-Ray movies and an HDMI cable. Is there anything else I should think about getting?

    Welcome to the forums :cool:


    There are just sooooooo many options... where to start!

    It's probably best to start, by asking what sort of budget you're looking to spend on them?
    And what will you be using the laptop for - primarily, since that would dictate what would be the best accessories to choose?

    Maybe an ExpressCard device of some sort - if it has an ExpressCard slot - else a Pygmy (PCMCIA) card?
    Options include a soundcard, or maybe an eSATA card?

    A pendrive maybe - for quick, initial backups, and file transfers to another system?

    A laptop cooler? A set of 2.0 speakers? A good mouse?
    A 2.5" external hard drive... or - as I prefer to do... a 2.5" drive of your choosing, in a 2.5" external enclosure of your choosing?

    Etc etc etc :D
