Laptop device interface
Hey guys,
I know that in normal desktop computers, the CPU interfaces the video card, sound card, USB card, etc by the PCI slots but what about laptops? I've heard that laptops also have a PCI bus even though do don't have a PCI slot so does this mean that the same address space that would normally be allocated for the PCI bus in a desktop computer, is allocated for these devices(embedded GPU, etc) in a laptop?
