    First mod I did to my CF18 was replace the klunky.com original 40 GB HD with a nice new Samsung Spinpoint 160 GB HD along with a fresh install of Win Xp (the proper Pro version, not the Tablet version).

    Get a SSD = speedy, quiet and looong battery time.

    Also have a SAAB 9000 CDE, but love my Defender more.

    He he Saab 9k's are good. I'm a classic Saab enthusiast as some of you will know.

    As for SSD's, they still seem quite expensive compared to good quality modern HDD's, but I'm sure that's going to change as SSD's become a commodity item like HDD's are.
