    Thanks for the help allyw123.
    It is a bit confusing, most of the people I have asked said around like 75-80 deg for the gpu, but one or 1 or 2 say around 90.

    I think it still does sound good tho.

    Same caddy that I got, although I'm quite impressed with it. You could easily fashion a bezel for it out of whatever you want, and you can also change the LED to white to match the rest of the laptop's LED's. Fitting the HDD in to the bay was indeed a little tight but the screws hold the drive in place nice and tight.

After upgrading to Lynx the fglrx drivers automatically installed by Ubuntu work out of the box, composing, resolution selection, multiple monitors... the works. I tried installing the 10.3 drivers off of the ATI site, they broke hardware support so I uninstalled them and went back to the boxed drivers.
    That is good to know. I noticed there were some people pulling the drivers from the repository but, I didn't know if they were 100% working or a work-around. thanks for the info. I will try it when I get home tonight.

    Let the fun begin. I now have it and am anxiously waiting to get off work so I can get started! I have Just Cause 2 ready to go for my initial testing but I may not get around to it tonight.

    Yay!
