    My friend claims the Asus G51JX-IX192V has switchable graphics, but I can't see it advertised. This would be ideal, if it is there, given the chip is a fairly decent 360M.

    Can anyone confirm whether it does or doesn't have it?

    No it does not have switchable graphics. First off its a quad core, which means no built in integrated graphics, and it has the completely wrong motherboard to support switchable graphics.

    Thanks.
    I did think he was being absurd.
