I think you're information is outdated by a year or two. Today the C2 is the king. Have a look at the new Wolfdales. They're maybe the best bang for the buck you ever got.

I don't like Macs and I usually don't even like people who like macs. But well afterall it's their decision if they prefer to spend twice.

Just compare the people who're in charge. Jobbs is known to be an arrogant s.o.b. Bill Gates is as far as I know a really nice guy.

Celeron? Or Duocore or quadcores CPU?:hmm:

Not a fan of Celeron.

C2 = Core 2; C2D = Core 2 Duo (dual core); C2Q = Core 2 Quad (Quad core)

Thankyou

Just to add my 2 cts worth before I've had my morning coffee.

What OS you use or have and whether it's 32bit or 64bit has alot for some of us to do with what we use our computers for.

Me at 57yo it's strictly for gameing and surfing the net. In other words PURE Fun and Games. (had first cup). And so far my homebilt plays the games(sims) just fine for me.

On the other side of the street others use their rig for work. And the type of work they do can have alot of impact on what OS they use and if it's 32 or 64 bit. And gameing on it is a small consideration on why it is so powerful and High End. (second cup)

I forgot where I was headed with this. But to sum it up it's a matter of NEEDS and WANTS. IMHO. (FINAL CUP)

Btw Good Morning to All

Yeah, you really need to get some new information. Maybe you should read this:

http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/cpu...-wolfdale.html

QUOTE: All dual-core processors from AMD are slower than the new Core 2 Duo E8000 series, which automatically ousts them from the $150+ price segment, where Intel’s dual-core solutions will now become the only player.

Maybe also surf to a big hardware reseller site (I believe in the US Newegg is pretty popular) and read the user reviews.
