Article Title: Intel's Common Building Blocks For NotebooksOther than customization and easier service Intel has also said these 11 notebooks are upgradeable. At first one might think that Intel means these notebooks can have more memory or a faster processor installed, but that is not the case here. Each of the 11 notebooks will support Intel's next generation dual-core mobile processor. Right now they all run Intel's Core Duo (Yonah) processors, but after a simple BIOS flash they will be able to support Core 2 Duo mobile processors (Merom).

well the only thing i dont like about it is the starndard battery. And the reason why is it does not leave as many design options for the motherboard and thus all the laptops will end up being around the same size, same weight.... not a big deal but the nice thing about laptops is they are different so you can find the one that fits your needs.
Over all i thank intel for this, its helped me out already and it will do so again in the future.
