10gb,combo,airport

Did the 384 buy a 256 and put along side the 128. Check your Apple/
Profiler, if so how much and where?

Yay

Keyboard leaves marks on screen despite rubber offsets, but that is a relatively minor problem

95% yay.

Trying to partition the HD and install OS X on an UFS partition was pretty much not possible. Only after reading a whole lot of threads I found out that this is NOT a god idea (although, SOME say UFS would run even faster than HFS+ - I'm a little confused)

What bothers me a little bit is that the modem takes quite some time to connect (15 secs). That just feels slow...

Haven't yet installed Classic Apps to check compatibility.

so far,
