    Yes you can remove them; but no, you won't be able to use an ASUS mobile graphics card in any other laptop. They are not standard MXM cards, so they will not fit in any other notebook.

    If you would have actually read any of that thread, you would have know this and not posted an question that has been answered a million times over...

    Thread closed. Let's not fling poo at each other whilst beating a dead horse.
