    Hello, I would like to know when will Dell offer laptops based on the AMD Puma plattform, together with the ATI mobility radeon 3870 graphics card - I am interested in the 17' screen size models.

    I have been unable to find this on my own.

    Thank you.

    Try HP. Dell seems to like Intel over AMD

    8 months ?! Oh crap...

    HP seems not to have even 8800GTS/GTX, and this laptop will be for games as well :-/

    Do you think it will be possible to use 8800GTS/GTX with Puma or Montevina?
