Good choice. I got the 9-cell one myself, lasts about 9 hours on light use.
I like pie.
not gonna be here for like 3 weeks
Well I hope you had a chance to see this laptop in person. I got a great deal on my laptop but...
The cost of a laptop is very much related to the quality of the LCD. The viewing angle of my laptop is horrible. I have to be sittin directly in front of it for the colors to be just right. If I sit to low it gets darker, to high it gets darker. Same goes when angled from left or right. It sucks especially if you have some friends/family watching a movie on it.
I have a 6 cell battery also, 17" screen. My battery will only last me an hour or less.
Another example: My brother bought a tablet from Gateway three years ago. He paid $1500 or more for it, and the screen is much more vibrant and vivid then mine and can be viewed from many angles.

Nature is a powerful force. Those who seek to subdue nature, never do so permanently.
you think getting a 40gb ssd would be large enough for this? only programs ill have on it are like aim, firefox, pokerstars...just your basic stuff like that

cool. ya i just checked, and im only using 25gb atm. will installing that ssd void the warranty?
doubtful, there is usually not a seal over the hd drive bay. Besides if something fucks up just put the original one back in.whaaaaaaaaaat wrote:

Yeah but leave no trace of evidence behind like scratches and shit cause that will likely void warranty.jsnipy wrote:
