    Is there a reason you'd want it to be? Everything I've seen is that turbo memory is not helpful to performance (in this generation).

    PS: Definately get 2 gigs of ram regardless.

    There is nothing indicating this laptop will include a robson module(turbo memory). No info at all in the specs and no mention in the reviews i've read.

    Many companies including hp and sony have said they dont intend on including turbo memory in their laptops. The main issue being that you cant use the internal turbo memory and a readyboost usb stick at the same time.

    There also are questions if there is any benefit to using turbo memory.
    Check out this review.

    Once i read that i decided that turbo memory wasnt a deal breaker for me and could hinder performance.
