    Firmware 1.4 isn't going to happen.

    As for your laptop overheating - Get yourself a can of compressed air and clean the dust out of it. I took mine apart last week and gave the fan a good cleaning out. All my overheating issues are gone, and it purrs quietly like new again.

    I downloaded the service manual for my Dell laptop from their website, had all the instructions necessary to remove the keyboard and screen etc.

    Here's the thread

    Edit: I realise this doesn't mean there's never gonna be a firmware update. But I was so hooked on the idea of being able to accurately use the pitch faders on my VCI.

    Ha, mine's 3 years old too. But perhaps it's done less partying than yours

    As soon as I can afford a new work machine, I'm gonna retire my old lappy to Ubuntu. Ha!
