That's what I didn't like.
But I'm going to set up a virtual machine running on a 250GB external Hard Drive with XP, and maybe later I'm going to buy a 350GB and run Windows 7.
So I'll be able to have three different OS' without partitioning.

damn, you should have waited until after july. after july 1st, any computer bought with vista gets a free upgrade to windows 7 when it's released.

64 bit may give you some problems as well =/.

other than that, it looks ****in awesome man. im 100% jealous.

Thanks for the advice, I didn't order yet and I was expecting to order after my graduation party so I have mad cash.

And could you explain why 64 bit might give me problems? Because when I was customizing it said I needed it for a 4GB RAM.

64 bit sometimes doesn't work with certain programs. for the most part you'll be fine, but every now and then you'll run into a program that doesn't work with your OS. happened to my dad's computer.

Not bad for a laptop, I have vista 64bit and 32bit but am running 32bit, the lack of 64bit drivers on most current hardware is somewhat dissapointing and the performance gains said to be had by 64bit will not be seen for awhile until 64bit compiled versions of software is the standard.
