    concerning the keyboard problems that a few seem to have. Are resellers aware of this possible problem? and are they testing to be sure they are not sending any out? I know some of them watch these boards and was just curious.

    Thanks for the tip...it made a slight improvement, but still not the sound volume that I expected. I thought it would be quite a bit louder. Still pretty frickin' nice sound though. I'll keep digging into the settings.

    ^ Neat! Where'd you get the carbon fiber?

    How is the temperature in the GT60 during tests? It seems to me like it could get pretty hot.

    I got the carbon fiber skin from Automega...it's the "dry" black skin, not the glossy (I had a glossy sample and didn't like the way it looked on the panel).

    I peeled off the big sticker (the one with all the specs on it) and put it on the cardboard envelope the skin came in, then cut it out very carefully to make a template for the corners of the panel skins. Right side is about 6.5 W and
    3" deep. Left side is 3x3. Then I just drew those as a square and a rectangle on the back of the skin, then applied the template to draw in the corners so that the wide curved corners would match at the top left and right of the touch pad. Cleaned the panel with alcohol and then applied the skins.

    Oh...I removed all the other stickers too, but they left a lot of glue residue. I VERY carefully put some super-glue remover on those areas and cleaned them off. I had to be careful...not sure how that remover would react with the plastic nearby. Then I cleaned the area thoroughly with alcohol.

    Well i found out the problem. The fragments seem to appear when i hit the turbo button on the laptop. The overclock seems to have a negative effect. When the turbo is off, everything run smooth as silk.

    Anyone else with the GT60 find the sound from the speakers REALLY disappointing? I mean its not bad but for being these hyped up 'premium best' speakers, I really find them underwhelming.

    I tried the Spectre 14 with the beats audio on it, and I kinda hate the beats fad thing going on, but I have to admit the speakers did sound fairly good for that laptop and certainly have a better depth (mid range?) than what I am hearing on the GT60 so far.
