My daughter just got her new MBP 2.33GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, it's a beautiful machine. I have a older 17in. 1.50 GHz and a brand new in the box 1.67 that I got from my company after talking them into getting new Macs. We sat side by side last night fooling with our machines, she kept asking me why they say hers is 7 times faster than mine, it clearly isn't, not even close. The older PB opens up programs at a blink of an eye. The same goes for the new MBP. She wanted me to ask when they say 7 times what exactly are they talking about. Do they mean working on projects? She also asked me why anyone would want to install XP, I told her many people use XP at work and it's easier to have both loaded.
