this is what the manufacturer said, BTW
Quote:
the upgrade will not be possible because the new MXM cards have a new pin layout due to optimus support which was not available on the older models. It will not be possible to fix this in any way with a BIOS update because the in layout is hard-wired in the MXM PCB and the mainboard.

Makes very good sense. To be fair, they just can't build a board that would take future development in consideration winknudge.gif

that's stupid. I had asked them about GPU possiblity of upgrades, and they said yes.
either way, I'll possibly send it to them to change the damn botherboard.

Will they be willing to? Cheaper (and less headache) to sell your current notebook and get the upgrade model
