    Hi guys, I have a S150 and I am thinking of upgrade the hard driver to a faster driver like a 5400 RPM or even a 7200 RPM. Does anyone know how to open my s150 and upgrade the hard drive and possibly upgrade the current DVD drive to a DVDRW drive?

    Check out pictures over at talkvaio.com -- you'll see how to open up the case. I'm not sure you'll like the price of upgrading the optical drive...but changing the hard drive is fairly painless.
