    I have just got to know that Toshiba launches laptop with three GPUs:

    Laptop With Three GPUs

    The combined efforts of both companies resulted in Toshiba's most powerful gaming laptop to date featuring the new highly integrated GeForceĀ® 9400M graphics processing unit (GPU) along with a pair of NVIDIA GeForce 9800M GTS enthusiast-class GPUs.
    That laptop must be very cool for gaming. But how can they deal with the heat?

    You don't use all three at the same time. It's either the on-board chip for low-power day to day stuff, or the 9800's in SLI. Many other laptops are sporting dual-GPU setups. About as good as you can get in a laptop, but is still put to shame by superior desktop gaming :p

    Even so, one desktop HD4870 can pretty much match both those cards.
