    Just a question about the two jacks with the headphone symbol. What are they for actually? I only plug in one for the headphone.
    And did anyone notice that in the R2, the audio jacks are not coloured (they're all black) compared to R1 or is it just my system

    yes they are. But remember your on a differnt motherboard cpu setup. If you look you see the mic at the very back. The 3 that closes to you can support a Mic or 5.1 setup.

    They can? Not that i was extensively looking but I quickly looked to see how I could change one to another line in (in addition to the mic) so I could input my desktop sound into the laptop so all is heard in my headphones..

    Couldnt get any of them to change to another input. I could apply headphone, 7.1 ect just not change to another input source..

    Guess i need to look closer..
