    1. Battery question here.

    I looked at Bestbuy's site here: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9366688&type=product&id=12180921510666

    and it says the FW480 comes with a 12 cell battery. I went to Best Buy and the battery was flush with the rest of the system. Does this mean there's a flush 12-cell that doesn't stick out or that Bestbuy's model really has a standard battery?

    Also, I thought the extended battery was 9-cell, not 12?? :confused:

    2.

    This one I'm unsure about. I went to Bestbuy, as I said, and I was playing around with the Vaio FW. The buttons on the trackpad were obnoxiously loud... Is there anyway I can quite them?


    P.S. I know you love the giant numbers :D :D
