By the way, I strongly recommend buying the 3-year extended warranty. Once a laptop gets to be about 2 years old (or older), stuff starts going wrong. My Gateway's motherboard died after 2.5 years - fortunately, it was still under warranty so I could take it in to Best Buy and say, "Fix it!!!" When it reached the 3-year mark, I renewed it. The machine is otherwise still working like a champ. I've also had IBM machines start having trouble after 2 years. This is pretty typical of all brands, actually.
