I do somewhat like the machine, though I don't care for the feel of the keyboard (I can type wildly on my 'shiba). Actually, Wallyworld has a Toshiba Satellite L675D for $578 and it looks pretty good. 17.3" display, 4 Gig RAM, 320 Gig SATA, but, alas, only 3 USB's. I'm planning on getting a "Squid" from ThinkGeek anyway, a company with some of the coolest shit you don't really need but can't live without, FYI. Question: Is it my imagination or have I heard that Win 7 did not particularly like sharing with other OS's (as in a duel-boot)? Mark
