We know it's probably a big deal for AMD and all, but we just weren't all that shocked to find out that Toshiba will shortly follow in Dell's wake and sell AMD-based laptops in the US and Europe. We really don't see much reason for these guys to hold out at this point -- which is probably why they're not anymore. Anywho, it's estimated a comparably equipped AMD machine will in some cases sell for over $80 less than Intel based machines, so you penny-pinching deal freaks might want to hang on before shelling out for that next Satellite.
