Thanks.

Yay. Nothing has really changed other than that option and the new option for the DVD+/-R drive. Of course, at some point I know all the S1XXX owners will try to upgrade to that.

I don’t really have the need for it and will wait for the DL type drives to be available. Plus, I have a gang of external +/- drives already. Of course, I should never say never.  :wink:

GroovyOne: another major change is price, I configured a system that was more or less $3,200 with the S170 configurator and here it comes up to $2,800

Looks nice, I’m happy with Sony and their incremental upgrades because I don’t feel as bad about not having the latest and greatest. wink

A year later and the only thing seperating my TR2 from a TR5 is 100MHz of CPU speed and 1MB of L2 cache.
