I know this laptop uses the 8800m gts video card, but does the motherboard still have the intel integrated video built into it? If it does and someone find out how to use it you can really increase the battery life methinks.

unfortunately it doesn't. Are you referring to that article in the news the other day? If so...it's only been talked about and only between intel and ATI. not Nvidia yet

Nah i was just wondering lol.

On another note would it be wise to invest in Lojack for my laptop? i saw it as low as $30 or so on amazon.
