I love the 17" over my old 15" system, it's like working on a desktop.

I know on my old powerbook I could flash the firmware but I haven't had my 15 inch Macbook Pro long enough for it to come up. I'm curious to know if you remove the dvd drive's RPC.

Travelling with it is a joy. Somebody has way too much disposable income. ;)
