    Just FYI - you will get the standard drivers with it even if you went sans OS.

    I don't think 9262 used laptop chipset. it's a desktop chipset. so dont wait for montevina on 9262.
    ppl said that u have to wait at least 3 month for 9800gtx.
    for the hdd, u always can upgrade it urself :)

    That's correct; the D901C/NP9262 runs a desktop chipset, not a mobile chipset. While the probability of the 9800 series being compatible with the D901C is, at a best guess, 50.00000000000000000000000001%, please don't go getting your hopes or expectations up, or plan your purchase on the assumption that it will be compatible, until the d**ned thing is actually released - until then it's all pure speculation, and anyone who tells you otherwise is just looking to part you from your $$ (think, a fool and his money ... :D ).
