    I got mine from INSTC.com, too. Rick and Gwen were great to work with and are highly recommended! I got one of their last 9 units before they sold out. [ :D]

    Scott -- I'll post some more comments on my Z70V, later tonight. I hope to have my full review done over the weekend.

    Someone oughtta add a Z70V avatar to the choices for our profiles... or maybe just rename the M6N avatar to Z70V.

    I just got my z70v from ISTNC. I have a brief review over at notebookforums.com. I am very happy with my purchase. My only concern is the hard drive (Hitachi 60GB 7200RPM). It makes strange noises occasionally. In addition, there is brief clicking followed by a "system" beep. I ran the Hitachi disk fitness test and there were no errors. Should I be concerned and have this drive replaced?

    I'm currently sitting on my parent's tri-pontoon boat in the middle of Lake Oconee. My brand new z70v is in my lap. The 2915 wireless card is working great. I'm guessing that I'm connected to the wireless network in the nearby Ritz hotel. My comprehensive review will be finished in a couple of days. In the meantime, I've got one thing to say about this notebook:

    WOW!! [ :D][ :D][ :D]
