    Hi All,

    I have some question about NP2096:

    1) It comes standard with 9 cells battery that sticks out. Is it possible to have NP2096 with a smaller battery that does not stick out? My guess 6 cells battery won't stick out? There is no smaller battery option on Sager website.

    2) The 320GB 7200rpm SATA 300 Hard Drive option, what kind of HD is that? Is it good and reliable? Does it have free fall censor?

    3) Some of you are talking about ordering NP2096 without pre-installed OS. How do you do it? I do not see such option on Sager website. I want to use my XP license.

    Thank you!

    Edit: I just found that HD is 320GB 7200RPM drive that is a Seagate Momentus 7200.3 and it does have free fall censor. Here is the review:
