Ah! I have heard of those, apparently they're pretty hard to find now, 
along with the battery ultrabay device too. Though, if I ever did find 
them, I'd be sure to get it!

Nice! I think I've got an R32 actually, been wanting to get it working 
for a while but I've yet to get a fresh battery or refurbish the one 
that I have, they're quite strange batteries.

They're very nice machines though, and I can imagine they probably do 
have a bit better cooling. Though I'm quite rough on the hardware so I'm 
probably not doing my laptop any favours, just thinking the heatsink 
might give it a bit more of a fighting chance xD
