    Hi
    I know there is P series from gateway which has the 8800GTS,Alienware m15x with 8800GTX,Sager 5793 and 9262 with 8800gtx and the Dell M1730 with 8800GTX.

    Is there any notebooks with the 8800 series of cards?

    Forgive me ignorance too.

    Rgds

    aye mate I'm kinda in teh same dilemma. A company called Cyberpower do seemingly great laptops with 8800GTX. The site is professional and all that but the customer feedback is horrible. I couldnt possibly buy off them because there are too many horror stories.

    The Dragon from HP uses the 8800M GTS also, in a 20.1 inch screen.
    Heavyweight replacement, although at 20.1 inch, SLI should`ve been an option.

    HP's 8710w has the Quadro 3600M which appears to be 8800 series hardware as well...

    More exact, the 8800M GTS.
    Also the Dell precision M6300 has it.
