    There will be no other notebook with a desktop i7, like ever.

    160M or 260M are most likely to be picked for the next refresh.

    Only Clevo's design team is crazy enough to get it done. If you interested in getting a bloomfield (i7 desktop) chip in a laptop, your interested in getting a D900F.
