I love the idea of the Ion.
Allows the advantages of low power usage and high portability, while having something that can do basic gaming and video. I hate the Atom, but the GPU somewhat makes up for it in this rig.

Good going Nvidia.

This will totally beat the crap out of the GMA 950. ATOM is a good low-powered chip with hyper-threading. One of my friends has one. It's a nice low-cost chip. The GMA 950 just sucks. Ion will take care of the terrible capabilities of the 950. If Intel wants to compete with ION, they need to put a GMA 4500MHD in their at least, or later, a low-power Larrabee.

hope to god these nvidia products dont fail so badly like all other nvidia parts in recent laptops (HP's especially)

@apache_lives: I agree. Nvidia maybe the leader now, but they still need to step it up if the consumers are to by worth while products at fair costs.
