    Any laptop with like specs+price that is better than Acer TimelineX?

    i think the non ULV timelineXs are all 8 hours battery life, so at this point, i dont care about ULV models unless they reduce the battery size (thus weight) for the same amount of battery life in the regular timelineXs also, i doubt they'll have it before school starts, i mean, there's 2...

    Asrock 4CoreDual-SATA2 + ASRock 4CoreDual-VSTA + ASRock 775Dual-VSTA

    http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=41495&processor=E7600&spec-codes=SLGTD comparing the specs or e6600 and e7600, it seems like the e6600 is better because it has a bigger cache but, if i cant overclock the cpu, i'm stuck to get e7600 for higher clock with less cache

    i'm interested in upgrading my cpu (have e6600 right now) on 4coredual-sata2 thinking of e8400, first thing i notice is that it's fsb is 1333mhz, so it will underclock the fsb right off the bat i'm wondering if this cpu even works
