    Reading this was heart breaking..

    Is there no hope for upgrading video cards with something newer and faster? Where is the humanity!? if we buy "suck" are we forced to stay "suck".

    Hey, at least be lucky to upgrade at all; most notebooks aren't on MXM and are stuck for good.

    And let's think about this - which makes more money for notebook manufacturers, a new video card or a whole new laptop? It's called planned obsolescence, and it's what drives the notebook computer industry.

    It would be nice to not have to throw away a complete system just to upgrade the video card but a small upgrade is better then none.
