NVIDIA now offering laptop drivers directly through website

NVIDIA has announced that it'll now offer laptop GPU drivers directly via its website -- long overdue, if you ask us. These drivers have traditionally been offered through the computer manufacturers since most mobile GPUs are customized to be compatible with the devices' specific hotkeys and suspend / resume functionality -- NVIDIA said it has found a way around with a new modular architecture. First on the menu are beta drivers for GeForce 8M and 9M series as well as Quadro NVS-series laptops that add CUDA and PhysX support, with Windows-certified drivers for all GeForce 7, 8 and 9 series and Quadro NVS series are due out early next year. Now, if only we could download hugs...

So... head over here >> http://www.nvidia.com/object/notebook_drivers.html , to grab your updated video drivers now!!
No more waiting for manufacturer's drivers!!
No more fussy laptopvideo2go!!

Do read ALL the notes before the download at NVIDIA's website, especially this...
