Powerbook & removable grafixcards?

Someone mentioned this in another thread, that the 12" models should have a removable grafix card.. Is this true?

No. It was proven that this was not true. Just wishful thinking. :(

It would have been really cool though.

Someone mentioned the NVIDIA 420 Go was on a daughtercard. So that's not true? Why did someone say that?

Because they desparately want it to be on a daughtercard?

DID YOU KNOW:

-The Dell Inspiron 8100 and 8200 have removable graphics cards, which can go to a GeForce 4 from the standard graphics (GeForce 2 I assume) for about $160?

-The new Radeon 9600 Mobility will be on a daughtercard?

-It takes six steps to replace the graphics on an Inspiron 8100/8200 and it's considered a user-serviceable part?

-Apple will never use graphics daughtercards on their laptops, ever? Ever? Well it's true... consider the company. Barely any of their computers can even take processor updates, do you really think they'd allow you to UPGRADE your GRAPHICS? No way!!!
