    You won't see the X1600 being the 'minimum requirement' for a while. The mobility cards are comparable to the lower-end desktop versions of the same GPU.

    He means that the X1600 is comparable to the slowest X1600 in the desktop range. The X1600 is available in different versions, where the XT is the fastest.
    The mobile X1600 is comparable to the slowest desktop-version (not the XT), or if we compare to older cards, it's about the same power as the 6800GT.
