    Does anyone know if ASUS offers a workstation type notebook with a high end Quadro graphics card?

    Didn't find any (at least with google "site:www.asus.com")
    I think Dell Precision Series (M90 and the others) are the best pick for you...

    Asus doesn't make any systems with the Quadro or FireGL cards.... ATI X1600 and Nvidia 7600 the the top end gpu's they're using at this point and true workstation graphics is not something Asus is into, at least right now. They're only recently gotten into gaming level cards within the last two years and only because the power efficiency of them were such that they could fit them in the light and thin systems they want to focus on.... So although it seems like they've gone in that direction, they really haven't.... the gpus just happen to have gone in their direction..... workstation level graphics really need a bigger platform than Asus is currently using, even on their biggest system....
