anyone know how good a 1.5 ghz centrino processor would be at crunching?

 

[Confused]

Don't know, but I sure would like to know!!

Also, as a test, could you please install and run Seventeen or Bust for a while, and tell us what the k and n values are, as well as the cEMs/sec value

That was my reaction.
The first person i saw post about their times with the Centrinos I figured they we BSing. Now that more people are posting thier times i guess it's true.

Hard to complain about a VLAR WU finishing in 2:25 :Q

 

[Shimmishim]

Awsome time!
I'm guessing the next generation Intel desktop processors will be based off of the bannias core. But from the looks of it the Pentium 4 roadmap takes it all the way up to 5Ghz which is probably 2 years or more away. Anyway, thats a nice computer you have there!

I've bought 3 1.6GHz Centrino laptops on ebay. Too bad nobody has been able to deliver one too me yet.:|

Enjoy it.
