What's the best graphics setup currently available in a laptop?

[JonTheBaller]

My friend wants to buy a notebook with the best graphics setup. I know the Radeon 9000 is available for notebooks, anything better currently available or coming out soon?

That's a nice mobile chipset but I like the GeForce FX Go 5600, too. I couldn't find a quick link listing upcoming laptops that will have this chipset though. I'll update this post if I can find one.

I know as of now, the Sony GRT series feature the GeForce FX Go5600.

the 32/64MB GF4 4200GO is also offered in the Latitude D800's.

If you're looking for a lappy with a 5600GO, then take a look at the Toshiba Satellite 5200 series in a review by THG

Check out the benchmarks they received, like the 3dmark2001se score of 8575 at 1024x768. They also go on to say that,

However, the results yielded with 3D graphics show that, from now on, games with full-screen anti-aliasing and anisotropic filtering are possible on a notebook with acceptable frame rates.

They do not however state which will be the better solution, ie. ATI or nVidia graphics in a mobile machine.
