I have just got to know that Toshiba launches laptop with three GPUs, The combined efforts of both companies resulted in Toshiba's most powerful gaming laptop to date featuring the new highly integrated GeForce® 9400M graphics processing unit (GPU) along with a pair of NVIDIA GeForce 9800M GTS enthusiast-class GPUs.
That laptop must be very cool for gaming.

Yes it has 3 gpu's... too bad the 9400M is terrible... and either the 9400 is active OR the 2 9800's are active. all three are never actually active together...

Yeah, the point is to enable a more quite mode.
That's cool. 2000 though, as Buick said: krikey...

I wouldnt buy it. Gesus, it weighs over 10 pounds.

Really not anything new either: hybrid graphics were introduced a few months back, and toshiba decided to make it go SLI instead of just to a single graphics card.

I don't understand the whole "gaming" laptop crazy. I'd rather take the money on a single "gaming" laptop and buy a normal laptop and build a gaming desktop.
