    I saw a rumour that the Z71V was, but have been unable to confirm

    The Asus Z-81 SP is MXM. ibuypower has it - check it out here.
    Coriolis says that there will be a review on it next week sometime - wait for that. ;)

    YES, the z71v is MXM. The 6800 Ultra Go is MXM-3, while our 6600go is MXM-2. You could technically put a 6800go or 7800 gtx go in here, but you'd have to do some modding (specifically for cooling, since the mxm-3 would hover over the motherboard chipset, requiring a special cooling solution).

    The z71v also has an 16x PCI-E lane MXM expansion on the side that is free! If there was a way to link, i guess you could technicall y have SLI in this baby.

    I thought that was a possible expansion slot for express card
