    This is it, guys. I'll be ordering the M6N since the M2N and M3N are no longer available around my area. Now, what should I add to my barebone notebook? Extra RAM, 2nd battery, what else? How long does the notebook last with both batteries? Does the barebone notebook come with drivers and the PowerSaving Gear software? Is wireless card included in the package? I'll be asking the retailer these questions as well, but would like to know if he's giving me the same answers. Thanks.

    Battery is about 3-4 hours from what people say. The barebone kit comes with a drivers disk, yes, but you're better of D/Ling the newest stuff from Asus anyway. Mini PCI wireless card is not included. You'll have to get the Intel PRO/Wireless 2200(b/g) or 2100(b) for $30-$45. Good luck!
