@venothxx7 hmm, well first of all make a recovery dvd. next remove some of the bloatware, but it actually isnt that bad compared to other notebooks. that's it basically, oh and also install google chrome, some people have had trouble with firefox in g53jw, but chrome is faster right now so you should get that anyway. oh also update the driver of your video card, google it i dont have a link. good luck :)

@venothxx7 well, i doubt you can get ANY laptop battery to last throughout college lol... kidding.. the g53jw has a pretty bad battery life, just right around 2 hours if you manage your settings correctly and not really play games/ do heavy editing. if you're looking for battery life, i suggest you look at apple laptops as they are the only ones that have good battery life.
@dirkhasselhoff using a G51JX in college has taught me the value of an extension cord, sadly my G51JX had beer spilt on it, so i got to replace it with the A3 model of this here computer.
@KyleHavenar almost 4 weeks, i tried waiting for the 2nd hdd bracket the 1st week, then after on 12/3 told them that I wanted it sent already anyway, so they said ok it will take 3-7 business days. But then they said they kinda had problems and were late on some so they were only able to send it on 12/17. and then it got here 12/23. and then they'll just send me the 2nd hdd bracket once asus provides them, which they say is around mid-january. im sure you'l get yours faster. good luck! :)
@dirkhasselhoff yea they told me the same thing, i ordered it with two 500gb hdd and they told me they would send the second hard drive but i would have to wait for the bracket.
@xshadowspherex they do, but for some stupid reason, ASUS has a shortage of the 2nd hdd, i really dont know why, it's such a basic component.. some online shops offer modified brackets, which people say do work, but i don't want to take my chance on that..
Getting this in three months :D
