    i'm just wondering, is there a weightsaver module for asus notebooks? like, i mean, a way we can remove the optical drive (or whatever is in the module bay at the time) and fill it in with something? how much does it cost? and which of these models support it?

    The M series (minus the M5)... the W3.... thats about it.

    The travelers drawer comes with the M6..... came with the M2 and M1.... was optional on the M3... I'm not sure if the W3 will have it in the package, but I think it will. If not, it's about a $30 piece of plastic.

    They are nice because you can put a couple bucks in there or a credit card..... and take it to lunch with you instead of carrying around you wallet or (ladies) a big purse.. Plus it saves 3/4 of a pound.

    People think I'm insane when I tell them to put money or a credit card in their computer.... but if you take it out with you, whats more important to hang on to?.... the computer.

    Thanks,
    Justin
