Rick: I also have a port replicator, and I can tell you: 1) The power supply to the port replicator is identical to the one for the machine itself. Therefore, you CAN remove the plug from the port replicator. 2) However, the...

Keith, FWIW, I'm using a Logitech Cordless MX Duo keyboard and mouse combo. The keyboard has volume and playback controls which work just fine, and the mouse is great. For headphones, I'm using Sennheiser HD497's which have great...

Hehe - I just got a survey from Gateway about my purchase experience! :-) I think I was pretty balanced - on a scale of 1 to 10 I gave them 9's and 10's for product design and quality, and 1's and 2's for the order-to-delivery...
