I disagree - a trade-off certainly but not exclusive.  The T40's come
with FireGL-class cards.  Granted they aren't ultraportables X, but
that's not what I asked for.  My buddy has a G41 - it's massive
compared to anything lenovo has in its current line (i.e. the new Gs)

Does anyone have any inside information/rumors on whether Lenovo plans
on staying with ATI for their current/future model laptops?
