    I don´t think it will come so soon. They will not relase it until Intel release the Montevina.

    Question:

    Is it realistically possible to get this on the Montevina by June or July of this year?

    I'll need to buy it for fall grad school....

    These models are expected to be released by Sager shortly after Intel officially releases the new mobile platform. (since they will both be based off of it) :D

    [Ahhnuld voice] DO IT NOW!!!

    jk...

    Anyway, am I reading that right that it will be a 1900x1200 res?

    Any other 15" out there with that kind of res? Won't that be pretty small?

    another mobo upgrade.

    for every single thing new mobo is required. they should re-think the way they do-things.

    dell didn't have to have a Mobo Upgrade for the penryn's or 8800m gtx.

    so they must be doing something right. and it shows that it can be done without a mobo upgrade. they must be thinking ahead.

    clevo on the otherhand is lazy perhaps and does mobo ugprades because it is the easiest way to change hardware without doing much thinking for the future-proofing hardware they have.

    and it's totally possible because dell has doneit/does it.

    So if I understand this correctly, the M860TU and others will be Montevina and Penryn refresh based notebooks? If so, then this is great because hopefully by then i'll have my tax return (curse you Volt Services for loosing my W-2 not one, two but THREE times) and i'll have a real chance at getting one. Personally I like the idea of this Clevo. The Alienware's are nice, but I wouldn't like the idea of owning a theft magnet.

    BTW, the m15x does have WUXGA, as do many other 15" notebooks in the past.

    I thought they probably did but was too lazy to look it up.

    Guess what I'm getting at is more of a question of whether or not that was too small for most people's comfort.

    OTH, I have pretty good vision and like a large res in most cases.

    I like the M860U 15.4"
    The plate looks gorgeous with the speaker now on the both side (rather than previous model)

    I mean it's disappointing cause Clevo is already releasing a replacement for it. :(
    But the replacement looks exactly the same as the current one, so maybe a motherboard replacement will do?

    so why would you go for the 15.4 inch? purely for mobility? or is it performing better than a 17"er also?

    Mainly mobility. 17" is everything but mobility.

    But, I hope 1920x1200 on a 15" is a typo. Man, it's hurting my eyes on a 17" lol...

    So that means the chassis will also have to be replaced.

    I do really hope that Clevo will offer to make the replacement for you, like they did last time.
