I would like gaming external graphics to become a reality, the Asus XG Station is still a no-go even after being announced nearly 2 years ago, but I suspect its because of the poor bandwidth of the Expresscard slots.

Maybe Expresscard 2.0 standard will fix this, or how about the ATI XGP?

External graphics are a great idea, less heat on the laptop itself, easily upgradable, you can overclock it without damaging the laptop, put it in SLI/Crossfire, etc. etc.

I just came across your blog about and wanted to drop you a note telling you how impressed I was with the information you have posted here. I have a site Understanding PPC http://understanding-ppc.110mb.com so I know what I’m talking about when I say your site is top-notch! Keep up the great work, you are providing a great resource on the Internet here!

Is it me or does this seem like a marketing gimmick? Pardon my cynicism, but I simply can’t see this site inspiring any innovation that these companies are not already aware of.

Our demands have always been simple:
Last long. Don’t crash. Be comfortable.

When they start making these three requirements paramount in their design plans, then we can start talking about making things bigger or smaller.

It’s kind of interesting that drawing the machine is before picking the specs of the machine.

I want a netbook with a great screen and keyboard, network connectivity, and a good battery. I want it designed for primarily living and working in the cloud.

Even HP reduced their screen when they increased the processor!
