    Is there any news of an intel chipset refresh to notebooks in early 2008? I am really leaning on purchasing an np9261 with some variant of the 8800m or at least a better card than the 8700 gt that is currently available but with the intro of tri-sli this coming year and intels new chipsets and so forth would is it possible that newer laptops will be revieled soon or at least in Q1 of 2008?

    The NP9261 is a great laptop but I am curious to know if anyone has read anything about a "newer" version or a new laptop boasting a new chipset is coming out within the next few months to replace it.

    You don't really expect anything but speculation when you ask this, right? :)

    Nothing concrete, but I am curious to see if anyone has hear "anything" at this point.
