    Well, I finally got this one fine laptop and have a couple of questions:

    1.- I want 4GB of RAM. Should I go for the GEIL with heat spreader

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...60381+1309221136+1309121118&name=4GB+(2+x+2GB)

    Or the Corsair, separate 2 GB modules without heat spreader:

    2.- It comes with a RAID 0 configuration, and I'm no friend of these setups. Can I get it JBOD without uninstalling, or better install the Vista 64-bit version ultimate?


    3.- Would like to change the keyboard. Is it possible? Any web where I can see how it can be performed?



    Already uninstalled the myriad of useless and trial programs it came with...a bit of work!

    Thanking yo for your help, write any idea you may come up with in other areas too.
