[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 874296, member: 24160"] What does "need" have to do with it. Personally, I "want" it in my next machine. And there really is nothing wrong with this, now 31 month old one, I'm sitting here typing this on. If we only bought what we needed, the economy would tank worse than it is now. I'd guess somewhere between 75-90% of us would not even have a computer in the home, much less be paying a 25-50% premium for a notebook instead of a desktop. At the price I can build a Core i7 system, I'll certainly not be purchasing any computer with less than a quad core. For those interested in the Intel roadmap, the current speculation can be found [URL="http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/15/leaked-intel-roadmap-specs-upcoming-core-i5-and-i7-lynnfield-c/"]here[/URL].
