Do you really game so much to require that card when you could get just as much pleasure and satisfaction from a 6800gt or 6600gt's in SLI?

If you're talking wireframe graphics then sure, I could see that. So what you were saying before about everything being turned on wasn't true?

70 != 100.

Yeah, but it'd be nice if something could be plugged into the Mini-PCI slot inside the laptop.

My OLD Dell latitude, that I had to give up this week, had a docking station with PCI slots that could take video cards.
