    Hi everyone,

    Check out this post made by a user in the Asus VIP forum:

    I so impatient to have the new W2V, as I heard that it would be including an Axiom module, wich make it so easy to upgrade the GPU. Do you have any idea about that?

    Interesting. Any 'official' comment?

    Cue rampant speculation.

    The W2 will certainly have enough room for a removable gpu, but again we're talking about the future and betting on the standards not changing and so forth...

    It's not a reason to buy a system because even if someone promises it, there is not way to know what lies ahead.

    Thanks,
