hi,
i was under the impression that the optimus like gfx switching on the new mbp's only enables the nvidia 330m when it is needed.
However every time i boot my laptop and log in gfxcardstatus reports it is using the nvidia card before switching it forcibly to 'intel only' for me.
why would it boot on nvidia? does it use this at the login screen as well? i can imagine this using unneeded battery time.
thanks
