    You were right in the other thread; that is a beautiful design. Is that option available for the 1535/1537? If so, I'm going to find one and install it myself. :)

    I like everything but the hard drive. really need to go 7200 RPM and 16MB cache

    8MB cache and 5400, is slow and its slowness eats up battery power.

    7200 RPM drives are also louder. I have a WD 5400 RPM drive in my 1535, and even in HD Performance mode, I can never hear it spinning or clicking.
