Well what can I say, I needed that little bit of extra storage that as a family we could all use. After searching around I narrowed it down to three suppliers, not the cheapest, but all well...
I purchased this Nook Color specifically because I was taking a very long trip to China and wanted to be able to read without carrying a ton of books. I also liked that it had email capability...
This is an awesome mouse with an excellent grip for a mid sized to large size hand. Right-handed, comfortable, trendy, upscale, red, responsive, functional, task oriented.
Overall A+++
Nice work Ken. Scores look right on. Could you also check your CPU temps and post them ?
I can't see your BIOS version on the screen shot. are you using the Intel 0901 ?

The CPU temperature is 51*C at idle. You are right I am using S96J's BIOS 0901.
Yeah I 'll recommend everyone download the new ATI drivers from Intel website.
And for S96J owners who has BIOS Versin 0406 I would recommend they update new BIOS, I've made a bootable CD in NERO image files for dowload, just use NERO to burn the image files into CD and follow the instructions to update BIOS and the whole process won't take more than 5 minutes:
1: Download NERO image files: http://1toppc.com/Merchant2/images/N...-BIOS-0601.nrg
2: Use Nero to burn the image file to the CD
3: Insert CD and when first power on the laptop press "ESC" at Intel logo scree
4: Select Optical drive at boot options screen
5: at "A:\\" prompt type "Update"
6: it'll automatically update the BIOS and don't turn off or reset the computer during BIOS flash.
7: screen will go back to "A:\\" prompt when finish8: restart the computer and boot to Windows, it'll start to find all kinds of new hardwares.
Which driver do I need to download. The ones that I see are for the Intel graphics chipset not ATI? I am sure I am missing something.
Is the heat a significant difference between the two models? I would like this as a portable workstation for XSI work. Can you take the laptop to any repair shop and have it repaired? This was the downside when i had a function sager since I was reliant on slow mail shipping repairs that didn't work.
