    I think what people should be more focused on isn't how long the battery lasts in one use, but how many years the battery will last while still getting a full charge.

    My Dell laptop battery used to get me about 4.5 hours (undervolted) of battery life when I used to use it in class, but now it lasts maybe 2 hours at most. I've actually had the battery die on me by leaving it in sleep mode for a day.

    Hey, whatcha got there?

    It's the new macbookQuidProQuad!

    Really?

    Oh yes, and see, it also doubles as a hotplate! Want some pancakes?

    Um, no thanks.

    Oops, I dented it already. There goes my warranty! :(

    Sweetness! Hopefully without raising the price of said MacBook Pros...


    And it's perfect timing with Snow Leopard, because Apple needs to substantially increase the performance differential between plain Jane MacBooks and MacBook Pros anyway.

    Couldnt the same be said for any other laptop manufacturer?


    Why single out MacBooks when announcing this news? Why not say "Intel Quad-Core Laptop Processors Inevitably Headed to Notebooks in the Third Quarter"?

    Awesome. It would seem AMD is truly dead. That or they're hiding in the shadows and lurking.


    By the way... I thought AMD was the "cheaper" and "better" processor?

    @waza0: I thought Intel made it clear they won't be be working on anything less then 4 cores from now on so this comes as a surprise to me.


    *** Core i7 is a solid platform. I went i7 because didn't want to have to re-buy my motherboard for a while.
