    Just got my NR120E
    $600!!!!!

    Amazing deal
    It was really slow when i first started it up, then I deleted all the junk and its blazing now.

    Only problem is when I open/close it it makes a annoying squeak, and it only happens when it is opened/closed very slowly.

    Also, it runs so cool!
    Compared to my macbook which runs very hot
    and the touchpad is very cheap and not as responsive/sensitive as my macbook

    Did you buy an additional 1gb RAM so that it is now blazingly fast?

    If you bought it in Best Buy, what color is it?(in the site it only says silver color or granite)

    I think best buy only carries the silver model at the moment.
