    The logical solution is to not stuff desktop graphics horsepower into a laptop. Some people just can’t get enough WoW it seems.They shouldn’t offer these kinds of chips until they have heat issues under control. Heat will destroy any electronic device given enough time.
    HP probably is swapping in new time bomb boards in place of the old ones. They do it all the time. It wouldn’t make sense to just attach a video daughterboard that lets people upgrade their laptop’s graphics. They have to lock you into buying a new machine sooner.

    Well this is a well known nVidia fault. A particular batch of those chips failed to work effeciently, not a small amount of them either. Nvidia are responsible, just are those that used them. Why in the testing stages were these not picked up?
    I have a nVidia 8600m GS in my laptop, it is overclocked and I play games on it, it works fine.
