    lol...what they are seperated NO :eek: hahaha thanks buddy, the laptop is quite nice. I'm very pleased with it, it performs quite well. I usually bring it in my garage and the speakers it has are quite nice. By far the Toshiba has a better speaker system compared to my Sony laptop. Apperently Toshibas are known to have speakers.

    very nice. So how do you like the metao compared to the makita? I love my makita and am just wondering if the metabo is that much better?

    but very cool buffer and even cooler computer

    Thank you, the Metabo cmopared tot he Makita? Well I prefer the Metabo because it's lighter. I do like the triger action the Makita has but aftera wile it gets to be a little anoying...that's just me though. Nice feature is that you can see the speed setting and you don't need to lift the machine or turnit off or anything like that, once I got the hang of the Metabo I can change the speed setting with out even looking at what dial it's at, I can just hear the machine and by the sound I have an idea at what speed it's running at. For doing flat surfaces like the hood, roof and trucks the Makita is good but when it comes to doing the door panels that's when I just couldn't adjust my self with it. The Metabo has a nice feel to it as soon as you place it on your hands, it feels confortable and as though it belongs in your hands. But both Makita and Metabo are great tools, I like having both actually...it's nice having choices :D lol.

    Happy belated birthday dude!

    lowest and highest speed setting?

    I use a DeWalt, and the thing is a serious workhorse, and i think i could drop it off an apartment block and it would still come back for more.
