    I just got the latest edition of games for windows, and on page 83 entitled ''building a better pc'', at the end there is a part that says ''loo,ing for something a little more portable?'' and it says:
    ''keep your ears open for a jaw dropping announcement in just a few weeks as Dell's laptop division gets ready to redifine the possibilities for gaming on the go.''

    what could this possibly mean? a completly new series or the xps refresh?
    to all new e1520/e1720 owners, try ebay, lol.

    Yeah, I saw that as well. Being a gaming magazine, it's probably Santa Rosa XPS refresh. Probably mobile Core 2 Extremes and 8700M GT. But we can always be hopeful for an 8800M. Dell has had a history of being the first with new NVIDIA stuff, like Quad-SLI. I believe they were thefirst with either GeForce Go 7800GTX, 7900GTX, or 7950GTX.
