    Before I type anything else, I want to apologize for teasing you all. I will have pictures up later tonight when I get my camera back.

    Ordered from newegg on Weds, May 5th and the UPS guy came earlier today. I will fire it up and play around with it. Time to inspect the unit for damage and nit-pick over every little detail...SIGH

    Feel free to ask me any questions regarding build quality and/or performance. I will try to answer questions to the best of my ability.

    Thanks, so far so good. I will post my impressions and pics later on.

    One QUESTION to you knowledgeable folks

    Will upgrading to 2x 2gig's of ddr3 1333 provide a performance boost? (I haven't opened up the back cover to inspect if I can even replace both dimms of memory)

    How much practical battery life will I lose (Approximately) if I switch to a 7200rpm HD
