    I want to see them in smaller, slimmer and more portable packages if I'm honest. Its good to see them in actual products though.

    Agreed. A small laptop which uses Richland's graphics abilities would be interesting. These seem to be high end gaming laptops, but I think that Intel CPU's would still be better for these.

    How are you going to get an intel CPU into it when its an AMD APU, you know a GPU built into a CPU !, if you want more GPU performance Intel can't match AMD and if you want more CPU then wait till the end of the year when Kavari is let lose, when that happens you will get a big step in both GPU and CPU performance. Intel won't get a lookin, thats why it is spending millions trying to develop its own built in GPU.

    I think you might be misunderstanding what he is saying and potentially overestimating the capability that Kaveri is actually going to have (at least at first anyway). Don't get me wrong, I'm hoping AMD have a serious game changer up there sleeve, i just don't see them having something that will make Intel irrelevant.
    I think what ET3D was suggesting is an Intel based gaming laptop with a discreet GPU would be better for laptops in this form factor.

    Yes, thanks for making it clearer. I don't much see the point of including an APU with a relatively powerful integrated GPU alongside a high end discrete card. Might as well go for a more powerful CPU with a lesser integrated GPU, and that would be Intel's.
