Just purchased 2GB of RAM from Crucial.com for $160, as well as a 100GB 7200RPM HDD from Newegg for $97, and a 2GB FlashDrive for Readyboost $8 on newegg.

Est Ship date was 4/2, although I hope I have it by then (Wishful Thinking maybe?). Im sure I will have my upgrade parts before I even have the box . The price you pay to get quality equiptment. *Sigh*

Grats mate Only thing I will say... why not upgrade the warranty to 3 years? When you're spending that much on a laptop, it's nice to know that you'll get at least 3 years of no-cost problem solving with it.
