    It's titled : Notebook Trio: ASUS A8JS and G2P and ABS Mayhem Z5

    Seems like a peculiar mix of Asus and ABS models. I've always considered Anandtech a pretty reliable source of good info but in this review they come off sounding a bit like Nvidia fanboys. There are some valid points in the article but I thought it was definitely anti-ATI. Any other thoughts?

    Ati did not bring competive gpus to market for notebooks in 2006

    only in the x1400 level.

    Well, there is the X1800 but I guess it's not quite as strong as Nvidia's GPUs nor is it as popular.

    I posted a link to this article when it was first released.

    I think the MR X1600 was a competitive GPU against the Go 7600. Although admittedly the MR X1600 was first launched in December 2005, but it's hardly it's fault that it beat the competition to market.
