Yes, keep it away from heat or overheating by buying an iCurve or some air flow stand or laptop desk.
you could gotten a G4 mac mini for a little more. Get yourself a icurve and external monitor,mouse,keyboard....oh and a external HD wont hurt.

Jus' lookin' out for ya...
I'd call Apple, tell 'em the Serial #, and see if you're eligible for the Logic Board Recall.
They'll either tell you to send it in or it's been repaired.
If not, see if you can still buy AppleCare for it. Just in case the Logic Board "does" go bad.
Congrats on your purchase, and I wish you all the best...
Peace!
PS. MAX OUT the RAM, and she'll love you,

RAMS, maxed out all ready... now I need an Airport card... they are not compatible with Airport extreme right?
And I heard somthing about that recall, Ill give Apple a call later.
Aswell reffering to the icurve... are these machince well known for over heating? ... I dont think I want to invest in an additional monitor, key board, mouse... I bought this laptop for the sole purpose of being a laptop and the accesability that comes with it.
Have a desktop already but I will look into the iCurve
Thanks
You'll need one of the noriginal airport card's they are more expensive but can be found on eBay for a reasonable price if you get a good auction.. Overall a good buy i'd say...

Wahts a good price for a Airport card... dont know what there worth really... cause apple doesnt sell them anymore hard to judge.
I sold an original Airport card on MR's MarketPlace for $60 shipped, this was sometime last year. I've seen people try to sell 'em for $100?!
Good luck on the search.

Thanks are they jsut increasing in price because of them becoming increasingly rare and people needing them for there macs that are not compatable with the extreme

You'll probably have to cough up the $$$ as they seem to cost about that much now.....$100 isnt too bad but if you can keep looking you may get one for $70-90...
