WHAT DOES CROSSFIRE for notebooks look like? If you are talking development boards, large and ungainly, but still functional.
This is a dual M88 board, two mobile RV670 derivatives with a PLX switch in the middle.
Mobile Crossfire dev system
Basically, it is the laptop equivalent of a 3870X2 on a Penryn laptop dev board, a dual core here, but it works well with quads too.
Given how Nvidia was utterly blown out of the water in Montevina design wins, look for this to be in a lot of high end gaming laptops in the about a quarter. µ

INQ Poll
Let's give a round of applause at Charlie, the new Mr.DAMMIT salesman! Go Mr.Salesman!
It didn't sound at all like Charlie was pimping DAMMIT. In fact, I think the point is closer to the fact that Intel thinks so little of AMD as a competitor that they're willing to use AMD (ATI) chips to spite NVidia.

Pay attention to the underlying theme, as it were. What is Intel up to with their business strategy? What does that forebode to the chip market and future consumer prices? etc.

any one say bring your laptop with a truck?
When I clicked on this article I thought it might be about hybrid crossfire, ie a laptop ha a pci-express video card as well as onboard capabilities, the powers combine to be a decent gaming machine?
