this one should be here tomorrow, I'll post the review asap (expect some VST audio performance testing...) and... wish me luck! Sager 5680-S Notebook: 5680-S Display: UXGA Wide Angle View 15" LCD ...

nice sounds, celldweller question - the 5680 has a 4-pin firewire, does it work with external enclosures that have a 6-pin connector? I know there are 4-6 pin cables, but do they really work? Has anyone tried to use one?

Nice test for Cubase (but could be good for any VST minded use): http://www.fivetowers.moar.net/cubasetest.shtml You can download a free demo of Cubase SX to open the file and see how high the CPU utilization gets on your machine....
