    I will post a pic of the power supply as soon as I actually get the laptop in my hands here in Kuwait. I'm a US Army medic stationed here so in order to get around all the shipping pains of having an APO AE P.O. Box I use a forwarding company that provides me with a stateside address and then shipitapo.com sends them to me with insurance to make sure it doesn't dissappear in our wonderful miltary mail system. SO... LoL will do I have a digicam and can't wait to see what this pup can do. :cool:
    I just wanted to share that you can get this rebate and deal from amazon.com so everyone would know about it here since this was the first review I saw for this laptop. More to come in about 7 days when it arrives ^_^
