    Thursday Aug 2 will be able to customize online. Hopefully these laptops wont have that whine pitch noise that the dell 1520 has.

    What does the M series have in the way of GPU options?

    I went to Gateway.com and they're still showing up under retail. Nothing to customize. I got an email from a rep and he said Aug. 5th.

    Its probably out whenever they get their HD2400s from ATi. Seems like HP is also waiting on the HD2600s before they release their 8510p (the 8510w is already out)

    ATi is still competent , AMD is not. Their DX10 cards are quite good its just the production and getting them out the door has been horrible because of the merger and move to California from Canada.
