    Hi, before purchasing the Asus N550-JV on sale, I do have a few questions...

    1. Is there a major issue with the wifi adapter, or has anything been fixed in latest manufactured models or with latest driver/firmware? I'm mainly getting this laptop to be able to work on my websites when I'm traveling so if the wifi is defective, this might be a deal breaker. Otherwise, can the end consumer open the chassis and replace the wifi card?

    2. Which memory cards are compatible with the built-in card reader?

    3. Can the 2x4 GB RAM sticks be removed easily and replaced with 2x8GB? Also, which RAM types are recommended as replacement? please provide links if possible...so that I know what to purchase.
