    Is this easy to do like the RAM? Does it void the warranty?

    I'm asking because the 60gb 7200 is $120 more and I figure I could buy one for that price easily in a bit. It seems really expensive currently and I'm not sure it's worth it right now.

    7200 on laptops is new right? How much do you think prices will drop in next month? Or has it already dropped a lot since last month when it first came out?

    7200 is not new, been out for years. In fact the drives are a bit scarce, causing prices to rise. If you get a 5400 RPM drive, I don't think you'll feel a huge difference with the 7200.
