    I've heard about this from a few different forums. I have no idea if it's a rumor or what? Does anyone know anything, rumors or not?

    I hope not. The D900F is a fat brick. Given the name, it stands to reason it's simply a 17inch version of the x8100.

    Maybe so, but it's taken years for AMD to actually start to write drivers for all those chips it sold to the poor souls who bought em.

    Theoretically yes, but it is very likely that Clevo will just update the motherboard and offer Sandy Bridge CPUs in the same chassis.

    considering that 980X is more than twice the speed of the fastest mobile processor, according to moore's law, it will be at least another 2 years before any mobile processor is faster.

    Here is a link to a eurocom website.

    http://www.x7200.com

    Though there is always possibility that the final version will be different.

    Moore's law only states that the number of transitors double every 18 months, this does not mean double speed or double performance. You can double the number of transistors and get more cache. I will take probably more then 2 years for the mobile cpu to be as powerfull as the present desktop cpu.

    This is a misinterpretation of Moore's law. Moore's law states that the number of transistors in a chip will double every 24 months. In the 90's, it was morphed into believing chip speed would double every 18 months. That was more or less true until we hit the 3GHz wall. Then, people again modifying the meaning into chips will become twice as powerful every 18 months. The truth is that Moore refined the period to two years, and he speaks of transistor count solely.
