Wake up DAAMIT!

I know this move is, again, stupid. But you have to admit that it effectively increase their margin. DAAMIT should have learned this lesson from nVidia a long time ago. nVidia don't even have a new product but they do have a "new name" for their old product and to some end users. It doesn't really matter where this GT120M came from. PC manufacturers always be able to sell these babies as the "newest mobile GPU up to date". And what do we got from DAAMIT's side? mobility Radeon HD34xx, 36xx, 38xx and that's all. They should focus more on mobile market than ever now if they don't want to be left in the dark with their paper-launched M9x GPUs.
