I require a triple channel 1366...

i had a 7+ lb amd 14" laptop with shitty ass gfx, hotter than hell chip, and crap batt life
i looked for another amd laptop w/ nvidia gfx, it didnt exist (dunno bout now)
i quickly realized my arm wasnt taking to this lead brick (and it had a couple problems hw wise anyhow) so, as the amd...

years ago the tour had a small operation feel, you were out on the floor, now i understand its an overhead walkway :\
my sff has this problem, it was also coming out of the onboard audio so i use a secondary card (which took some doing since it is a sff)
