[Reveyah]

Ty for the Replies

The only thing I would have added, for a higher model laptop like this, is a bluray player/burner. At some point you'll get an itch to run some hi-def movies and you won't have the drive for them.

Wow very sweet laptop. You can't go wrong with that. I love the 6990 in that beast....

 

[Reveyah]

yea the blueray is the one thing i wish i would have added.

Is it possible to change the drive and add a blueray one later in a Laptop?

 

[WR2]

Yes it is, and it's an easy change you can do yourself.
A Blu-Ray combo drive is running about $70 these days.

An example: LG Black 8X DVD+R 5X DVD-RAM 6X BD-ROM 2MB Cache SATA Slim Internal Blu-ray Super-Multi Combo Drive
This one is $99 but I've seen them on sale for less.

Don't forget you can get an external drive as well.

Internal Slim BD-ROM DVD Writer $79

External BD-ROM DVD Writer $70

Ty for the links WR2, I'm going to have to pick one up.

I had some problems with the military star card while buying some computer gadgets last month. From some reason I had my bank account blocked due to some maintainance, while on the same time I was buying to my wife new shoes by also using my star card, there wasn't any problems. Weird.
