Quick question:

There is that little network unplugged icon in the bottom left next to the clock for the gigaport port that is not in use. How can I get rid of that? I have already gone in and chose not to "Show icon in notification area when connected." but it is still hanging out there.

I think if you go into the properties of the connection and uncheck 'notify me when this connection has limited or no connectivity' may do it

I think it's apart of the megahurtz of the dilimiting combobulator which engages the hyper-drive port and then leaves you in the dust!!!

Its just a network port that theoretically can reach that speed.

oh, its a 1000 Base-T Gigabit Ethernet port.

actually there isn't any theory involved here, it operates at 1000 megabits/sec.
