SSE2? I wouldn't bother with it. My current laptop is Celeron M based and I can't use iTunes 7 or the latest QuickTime allready. The number of applications that will not run properly on SSE2 CPUs will only increase in the future... Unfortunately Core is the only safe option, and Core Duo laptops are not much cheaper than a real Macbook, most of them anyway...

 

Anyway, it's annoying that my laptop can't sleep so I have to shutdown and power up a lot, so I'm saving up for a Macbook myself...

the resolution of that thing sucks, sorry but it does!

 

I'd rather save the money and buy something worth it, either the new vaio book or the macbook.. or in the worst case a new dell laptop.. ;-)

 

in some cases you can apply the theory that if it's a little too cheap it's not really worth anything.. and using a usb dongle permanently for wlan sucks aswell..

 

sorry just delivering my thoughts uncensored... and in the end i hope that i've done you a favour in doing so..

 

cheers!
