Yeah, the HD is the only problem with it.

To be fair though, most laptops run 5,200 RPM HDs and if you try and go much faster you're going to get heat and energy consumption issues.

A better idea (IMHO) is to go with the 80GB HD, which is more than enough for your system, and then hot swap either USB or Firewire drives. (It supports both interfaces, BTW).

In your case, for example, you could have one drive with all your visuals stuff on and another with your music.

I also got one of those ECHO Indigo PCMCIA soundcards.
