How much would it cost to order a second 8800m gtx if they are still available. You'll have to forgive me since I haven't been in the loop for quite some time now.

Thanks

Should I assume that this is no longer possible?

I would say no. From what I've gathered, the first wave of 9800M GT's are nothing more then rebranded 8800M GTX's that Nvidia where trying to use up. There was one review site off the web that I found a few weeks ago about the 9800M GT's that said and showed them actually taking apart a computer they received for review to find the GC actaully was stamped 8800M GTX. However, in the system info it read 9800M GT. Just another reason why ATI needs to get on the ball and get a high end mobile product out there. Nvidia is just using that is a reason to charge HELLA DOLLA for old products and technology.......
