What kind of computer do you have?

[Narcoleptic Jumper]

MacBook Pro 1.83 Ghz, 1.5 GB RAM, DVD-RW drive, 80 GB HD, yadda yadda. I love it, though there may be a problem with the extra RAM I bought.

What's more powerful, the Dual Core or the AMD AthlonX2?

 

If you're talking about the Intel Dual Core or the AMD AX2 (comparing companies' dual cores), the general rule is that AMD is about two years ahead of Intel in their technology, and the same holds true for dual core.

 

If you're talking about the difference between Dual Core and X2, there is none.

Yeah I was talking about comparing companies' dual cores. Thanks.

 

Looks like I might be investing in an Athlon64 later this year anyways,

I now own a MacBook because my Powerbook (2nd one) broke.

 

It sucks because I couldn't return my Powerbook at first, but I called Apple and they said I should be able to. So I went back to CompUSA and they said I can bring it back. I'll just get about $1679 in store credit.

 

I guess I'll be getting some more toys.
