(This is currently an active WIP I'm working on right now as you read this-just wanted my progress so far saved to the forums for safety... And hey, theres information here already!)
Hello all. Normaly, I'M a quiet lurker of this forum. But! My interest in the array of notebooks so far out with the new technolgies has struck me... And while I could just assemble this all in a notepad file, I figured here would be better for others.
So, what am I compiling here?
Notebooks with Santa Rosa, and/or the new GeForce 8X00(If for some insane reason I keep updating this long enough for ATI to get off their ass the X2XX0 will join too.)
So the point of this thread is to assemble as much of such information in one place. So...
What data should be submitted if you find one I missed(Minimum... please.)
Company:
Model:
The price you found it at and a link to such.(And preferably its config as such)
Its spec range.
Also, please only currently released models(Available or back ordered).
So! Let me start this out of course with what I salvaged from around this forum. There will be 3 categories. SR+8X, SR, and 8X.

Clevo D900C will be getting a (or two) 8700M. The M570RU is speculated to have one as well (when it is released.)
-
Hmm. The HP dv2500t and dv6500t will be getting the option of an 8400M, and the dv9500t will be getting the 8400M and 8600MGS as alternatives to Intel. Ok, thats a coming soon (didnt see the message at the top).
