There's actually a fairly large debate going on right now with a related problem ~ because of differences in how LBA file systems like FAT32 and NTFS (to an extent) delete stuff, and how NAND flash memory deletes (basically have to delete all the pages in a block, or blocks on a page, I forget), the SSD fills up way too fast, and starts to get 'slower'!

Windows 7 is rumored to have a SSD-cleaning tool that will eliminate this problem, which was actually a big part of my deciding to switch to it.

I'm having trouble finding the most informative article that I read, it was before I started reading everything on my Kindle lol... damn my brain for not being searchable!

You run the mineral oil through a large radiator anyway. A decent sized radiator with two 120mm fans running low RPMs is enough.

Well, I've got 20 minutes on this thing. It's not bad at all - I like the touchpad a lot more than anything else and the battery seems to last right around 6 hours - for reference my Hp Mini1000 was only getting 2:30 out of a battery.

My one gripe is that it gets hot as fuck and the whole chassis heats up because it's aluminum.

Keep us posted with the battery life stuff. My Macbook 13" (from right when the Macbooks came out in 2006) got about 5hrs if I turned everything off (Wifi, bluetooth) and ran the screen pretty low. I'd be very surprised if your Pro lasted longer than that... 6hrs is netbook territory.

I'd assume you'd BIOS-mod for the Mac OS install, which causes problems because there's limited space to BIOS-mod for SLIC 2.2 (win7 activation hack). That would be a serious problem for me, at least.

Yeah, it's looking to be more like 5hr 10min with wifi on and the screen set at midlevel. Either way, it's better than my netbook so I'm happy - I think the netbook is being passed to my girlfriend and she's selling her 15" 2ghz macbook pro because she already has a 24" iMac.

Enjoy running Linux on your MBP if you so choose to. It makes it so hot that you could probably cook an egg on it.

I regret buying my MBP, should've just purchased a netbook.

I've been building PC's since the Cyrix PR166+ days, and was doing pretty good building and selling systems for people all through highschool. Actually, that kinda picked up again recently, and I've been dealing more and more with people who want to play pc games but don't know wtf to buy/build. Its what let me pay for the system I'm posting this on.

Dell 24in and 2x Dell 20in monitors
Core i7 920 @ 3.8ghz
6gb G.Skill DDR3
EVGA 285GTX & 8800GT (runs the two 20in monitors and does physx or w/e)
Coolermaster HAF940 case
Thermaltake 1200w PSU

Looks beast. Is that the Thermaltake Ultra 120? That came out right after I bought my last cooler, I'm all about big and quiet... thought about buying one.

Yeah.

I can see why people like Macs, it's the little touches and the plain quality. One thing that did manage to piss me off a little is that the icon for a Windows computer on the network is a monitor with a blue screen and some white writing that would obviously be intended to look like a blue screen of death.

The fan is on the bottom of the powersupply, and the case has openings on the bottom for it to draw air from.

Cool.

From the looks of it, there seems to be a gratuitous amount of airflow going thru the bottom.

i'm sure most of them are purpose-built for gaming, but power is power. build your computer bigger now and it'll be much longer before you inevitably have to do it again.

I'm a genetics grad student interested in a lot of bioinformatics/evolution topics so my hardware is mostly used for that. The little bit of gaming I do can run on probably 6 or 7 year hardware without too many issues.
