its smoked...

might get the HD this week, otherwise it will likely be on the weekend...

what RPM drive would you reccomend? the 4200 or if i can get it the 5600?

i know speed is everything, but will 1400 RPM make that much of a difference?

Most of the replacements for that lappy will be 5400 RPM. Just get one of those, they don't seem to cost any more.
It will be a little quicker because of that and a freshly loaded OS.
