    My AAO was manufactured in October of 08 and I have the 35/3305 Bios. Is this the latest Bios or do I need to upgrade?

    There is 3308 (Official)
    and 3309 (Unofficial, you will find it in Drivers/Downloads section)
    I'm using 3305 (it came with 3114)
    I'm planning to upgrade to 3308. :)

    v3114 is one of the oldest ones...
    Newest official BIOS is v3308 and latest unofficial is v3309.
    If you flash your BIOS to a newer one, your brightness won't go down as much as it does with v3114, but the new BIOS is supposed to have better fan control.. ah well... I use A1CTL, works better. I'm not sure it works on Linux though.
    Anyway, here are the links:
    Official (up to v3308) - http://support.acer-euro.com/drivers/no ... e_150.html
    Unofficial (up to v3309) - http://sites.google.com/site/maclesblogspotcom/
