    Why would 15.4 be 16:10 and 15.6 NOT be 16:9 ?!


    EDIT: Nevermind, it is 16:10...

    Nope, I don't think so
    I just looked, no GTX260M in their 15.4-16"

    EDIT:
    Nevermind... my bad

    SAGER NP8662
    Built on Clevo M860TU


    PS: Loving their new site design



    I still can't wait for when I graduate 8)

    Either getting a MacBook Pro and building an extremely upgradeable desktop
    or
    Getting a Mac Pro... and fully spec'ing it and running Windows 7 (hopefully Virtualization will be powerful enough by then to use the hardware similar enough to a PC... as in Crysis plays at least 75% as good on my future Mac vs same spec'ed PC etc...)

    Eurocom has the GTX 260M listed for its M860TU line, the "Montebello," as well as a 1GB GDDR3 GTX 160M.
