    So for those who ordered the NP8660, great!
    But now, with the notebook, the only thing you can do to enhance your experience is to have some accessories.
    Can anyone who currently owns the notebook give recommendations for things such as...

    Laptop Bag/Backpack/Messenger Bag

    Laptop Sleeve

    Laptop Lock
    http://www.amazon.com/Kensington-64...2WIZ03VRJ8TMU&s=generic&qid=1221870582&sr=1-1

    etc..
    that are compatible with the NP8660
    As a student who will be in his fourth year and is working in a lab on campus, I require some of the items listed above and am in limbo as to get what.

    I'll update this thread with suggestions so future people would not have to go through the whole thread.

    I am pretty sure any notebook locks would work.

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure since the standard for it is the same for everything, but any recommendations on a good one/cheap or anything? It's because there's so many kinds I'm pretty sure they're a few that are superior to others

    I can confirm that Kensington locks are working with this laptop :) A bit loose but I can live with that. I got the MicroSaver Combo Lock since a combinaison is easier than some keys that you can lose. I got the lock for $30, now on sale at $20.

    For the bag, I personally prefer a backpack since you can have all your books inside. Here's where to start: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_g...arch-alias=aps&field-keywords=laptop+backpack

    go to best buy, check out the laptop bags for 15.4" notebooks. Kensington is a a standard for security, notebook coolers (well im sure Gophn will chime in here with his automated response on this one).
