    Hi, I'm strongly considering buying the Gateway M-152XL since it has an hdmi port, 15.4'' screen, and a penryn processor all for under a grand, but the only problem is that the graphics card the HD 2600 specs say that it has "Integrated HD audio controller with multi-channel (5.1) AC3 support," but not DTS. I know the HD 3000 series supports DTS but the laptops with a HD 3000 series card are too pricey for me. So is there any way that I can play back DTS with the 2600 card through the hdmi port, either with codecs, driver updates, anything? thanks again.

    does anyone have any info? I'm about to purchase it, and I want to make sure my mkv movies with dts audio will pass through the hdmi port.
