    Doesn't sound like enough to cover all the laptop issues

    Ouch.

    What with the die issues of their mobile parts, the lack of any sort of x86 license, VERY limited use of SLI on Intel-chipsets and the whole physics thing (PhysX on NVIDIA's side and Intel and AMD wanting nothing to do with it and supporting Havok), you really wouldn't be investing any serious money in NVIDIA right now.

    Their rosiest product from my point of view is the 9800GTX+ (ATI have everything else well and truly covered, yet that's still a viable alternative) and other than that, they're pretty much relying on the mobile market... something AMD are very much starting to eat into, especially with Dell's immediately popular range of Studio laptops.

    If manafacturers see that AMD is the side to be on right now we might actually get a flood of PUMA laptops. Which is great for the laptop market As long as nvidia eventually fight back that is.. All the new 9 series mobile parts are the same as the old one's just run a bit cooler.
