Default Re: Windows XP Laptop for light use for abt 35-40k

well, I know perfectly well that they are supposed to be names for different intel processors, with different architectural properties. but what I wanted to point out is that they are giving the name Dual Core a bad meaning. I went to a retailer the other day and asked for a good dual core processor with min 2ghz per core and 2 mb l2 cache, and he said only core2duo are available and not dual core. I was like WHAT THE ******* HELL?Dual Core means twin cores, not pentium D. and I helped enlighten another indivudial with some current isues....

so please don't misjudge me. I was just pissed off at how crazy people can get due to intel's branding and advertising. This is the same way a linux user feels when someone asks which windows you have instead of asking which OS do you have.
