As this thread is almost 11 months old, and has become a generic DC tech discussion rather than about this specific portable (save the occasional 'cool' comment by a newbie), I have decided to lock this topic. However, seeing as it is possibly the most successful and important post in DC forums, it will be sticked so that it can still be read and found easily by everyone.

dkap01, if you want to add to this thread, then PM one of the mods and we will discuss it. ^^
Warranty-Voiding fun!
