Rick,

Haven't looked at the physical hard drive, but it shows up as an
IDE/ATA/ATAPI controller in device manager. Will of course open the laptop
before actually ordering, but thanks for the reminder! :) 

Not your fault Amazon used the wrong information.

Wouldn't mind a similar sized drive (120-160GB) if I could get the 7200rpm.
Can always use an external for extra storage. 

Thanks,

Jim Maki
