just a simple question. are they that far off? within a year or two? just ordered an xps with penryn a week ago and just want to know how long until i start regretting.
yepper... as in laptop. not really a hint of anything anywhere. i was thinking at least a year or so. just making sure i wasn't missing anything anywhere. thx.
regret it or not, enjoy 20 minute battery lifes with quad cores sucking all the juice from your system. Until they find a way to lessen the load on the battery Qs wont become mainstream until someone finds a way to lessen power to other major components to allow decent battery life coupled with expected use.
Who is really going to need it? I just bought a AMD Phantom 9500 Quad Core. The only time I get the full use out of it is when I ran my own program, which can be quite CPU intensive sometimes. Other than that, I think my Core Duo laptop is just as fast.
