    A big flap on the Dell board right now is the question of whether the video memory on the Nvida 8600M GT (same core as on the Quadro FX 570M) shipping with the new Inspirons is GDDR2 or GDDR3, which along with core speeds can make a huge difference in memory throughput. I can't find anything about what kind of memory Lenovo is using on the T61P's 570M. Anyone have any info on this?

    Seen the NVIDIA convention to give the most expensive parts the most crappy hardware (eg Quadro's with ****ty coolers, the cheapest ram, etc) it wil probably be GDDR2...
