4. I was expecting a DX11 mobile GPU not that obsolete DX10 thing...
5. An obsolete Core 2 having i3 or i5 available.... hmmmm....
6. I like the removal of the bottom to operate inside but... why I have no access to the HDD?
1. Dead format really, we're moving to digital steamed/downloaded media. It would also add to much $$$
2. I'm goona go out on a huge limb and say this was for asthetics. USB who cares :/
3. European prices include taxes.
4. Yeah, because tesselation would be great on a low range card that can barely push dx9c (48 shader nvidia part)
5. Core2duo have comaprable performance/watt and performance/TDP since the 45nm process is so mature. This allowed lower cost and also allowed the use of an integrated low-power, but high performance/watt graphics chip. Intel HD is about 40% of 320m.
6. I think it's to give the illusion of upgradability... whos goona upgrade it from 2gb->4gb as it's goona cost you about the same and a little hassle.
