Any suggestions if one should opt for the (160GB) 5400 or the (100GB) 7200 rpm internal hard drive? I assume the 7200rpm is faster, and costs 90€ less... but it may be more noisy.

They must have JUST stopped doing that then, because I just got my 15" with the 7200 pre-installed three days ago. True, I had to have it special ordered that way and they don't offer it as a stock option, but they did it, nonetheless. I can't imagine I could curry favor with Apple that the next guy doesn't have! I'd double/triple check before you make any decisions, just in case. Deane - d e a n e o g d e n http://www.deaneogden.com http://www.myspace.com/deaneogdenmusic
