How gay, my old HP doesn't have that.
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

Isnt the whole point of laptops that they can easily be trasported? I still dont see the need for the hdd removal.
it'd be a little strange carrying a laptop around a high school/lockers don't have locks on them
I guess, a few people at my school had laptops, so it wouldnt have looked out of place. Cheez seems to have found the solution.

from my techie days i remember taking apart all flavors of laptops, and they almost always have some proprietary connector on the hard drive that is easily removable.  but after you take that thing off, its just the usual sata connection.  cheez is the big winnar.
