    Just a though after looking at T400/500, i am wondering if Clevo will ever make their laptop has switchable GPU option like T400. with that we can use the laptop to game if we need it -or- choose long BATTERY if we could :p
    this could be the perfect laptop

    I'm going to say.... likely not. I just don't see clevo doing it. I wish they would though.

    I am not really sure if they will ever release a Hybrid SLi system or not, though, it would be nice to see an Hybrid SLi configuration in a Clevo Laptop, it would add mobility to even to the most-powerful "goliaths", well, except for the weight, but at least the battery life would increase.

    Hopefully we will start seeing Hybrid SLi systems from Clevo soon.

    Hybrid SLi is switching from a Discrete Nvidia GPU to a Nvidia Motherboard's Int. GPU.

    Hybrid Graphics and Hybrid SLI are slightly different.
    Clevo could come up with Hybrid Graphics on the lower end models, since it is quite simple to setup, but (hybrid sli) I don't think they will use a nvidia chipset in any of their current models....

    The 9400M would not boost the main cards in the clevo systems in any way. It is intended for more lower end cards.

    Lol, Hybrid GPU SYSTEM!!!! Sounded really epic. Reminds me of the iPhone introduction. Its an iPod, a Phone and AN INTERNET COMMUNICATIONS DEVICE!!!'1111 (gasp)
