[QUOTE="Sonicjet, post: 1303635, member: 125088"] Only the 13 inch has the dual core i5 2415m or i7 2620m, and trust me. The Processor in the 13 inch is an absolute monster for what it is, it's performance is much higher than a Core 2 Quad (quad core) and is the absolute limit of what will run in a 13 inch computer without melting the thing. The dual core processor makes the thing run hot enough as it is. The processor is a quad thread processor, that means that the computer sees 4 cores not two, it makes processing more efficient by being able to run a second set of processes while the core is waiting on a process or idle.( This is called Hyperthreading, btw.)
