    Ok, so I'm a happy camper, it's like Xmas right about now. Here's what I got.

    It appears to be perfect, with nothing out of place, fit and finish is excellent, much nicer and way faster than my 4 year old dv6t-1000 CTO. Boot up appears to be in the 10 second range or lower. The screen is awesome. Thanks to everyone who recommended it! Love the lit keyboard also.

    Thankfully I was still able to get Windows 7!!!!!!!!

    So far though, the synapsis mouse pad needs some adjusting for my taste, so I will need to go into settings for that. Has anyone else found that they also needed to adj the mouse pads sensitivity?

    I also miss having an indicator that tells me the status of the number lock. Does anyone have a fix/app they can recommend or do you find it to not be an issue?
