    I just wanted to share my experience with upgrading my 6831. This is what I've upgraded so far:


    -2.5 T9300 CPU w/Arctic Silver 5
    -4 Gigabytes of Memory
    -Dual 250 Gig HDs in Raid 0
    -1680x1050 LCD Screen


    I'm quite happy with the system. The only other item I have toyed with is upgrading the LCD again to 1920x1200 but I'm not really sure.

    Anyway, if I help anybody with upgrading their system or answer any questions, please feel free to ask!


    Cheers!
