    I've been looking for the thinnest/lightest notebook that has at least a 9600M GT or better, but I was recently researching the GTX 260M card, and found this page:

    http://www.nvidia.com/object/product_geforce_gtx_260m_us.html

    Any idea what brand/model any of those 3 notebooks are? They look so nice and thin! :D

    Just curious- thanks for any help. :)

    That looks like gateway's styling to me.

    Hmm, yeah that's what I was thinking as well. Anybody know what any of those models might be? (the second one down, on the right looks particularly nice).

    They look a bit too thing.

    I very much doubt any laptop with the GTX 260M will be thin at all considering how much heat that card generate. If someone actually does pull it off, it'll be terribly downclocked or have horrendous temp issues.
