New Intel Processor (at least to me)

Ok... I'm looking for a laptop and I noticed they had a new (to me) processor to choose from.

I had heard of the Pentium M on the past but... what's Core Duo? Like saying Celeron Duo? Or like Pentium Duo? I'm lost...

Any help will be appreciated.

it's a dual core mobile chip, so it runs cooler and is more power efficient.

Yes Core Duo just means that it has two CPU cores on the dia as opposed to Core Solo.

Nevermind... "Intel Core is a new platform umbrella intended to replace the Pentium M brand."
Thanks for the link. I should've thought about Wikipedia before

You comment didn't

I know Core Solo is better than Core Duo, but was it better than Pentium M?



Thanks for the page, though, man.

No no, core sole means one CPU core, as opposed to two which is not better, heres an example,

# Intel Core Solo Processor T1300: 1.66 GHz, single-core
# Intel Core Duo Processor T2300: 1.66 GHz, dual-core

They both have the same core speed but the T2300 has two cores running at that speed and can process more information.

i should have made a note that it runs cooler and is more power efficient because it is a mobile chip, and all mobile chips have this efficiency standard because their home is in a laptop.

Well...Ive been looking into buying/building a desktop and Ive been doing some research on processors coming out. Dual Core is very nice and its suppose to let people who multitask a lot not become bogged down by any program running. Baiscally u can burn a DVD and run a full system anti virus scan in the background without any slow down or anything. If u plan on buying a computer soon...I would wait coz of some major things coming out soon.

1) Windows Vista is coming
2) For you gamers, including me, DirectX 10
3) Quad-Core technology in 2007

Intel is suppose to be gaining some lost ground in terms of speed from AMD with its Conroe processor coming out soon, but Im sure AMD will surpass them with a new processor

If you mean soon as in a year form now then yes. Most people looking at computers want them before 1 year from now though. Vista just got pushed back till 2007.

Yeah I think BILL GATES just mentioned it this weekend, as I hear. They postponed it a year I am pretty sure.....

"According to Microsoft, the scheduled release date for Windows Vista is currently November 2006 for business editions, and January 2007 for consumer editions[1]."

EDIT: The only reason I remembered this is because I was thinking how pissed off DELL and the other computer companies have to be because it is not going to be out for christmas!!!
