yes but thats a core 2 duo and the other is dual core .... ?!?!?!

I think that the speed difference is significant enough that the name shouldn't matter. I'm curious, how did you decide on the speeds? Based on what?

sooo ... are you tryin to tell me that rather than the core 2 duo 2.8ghz that jeph recommended the dual core 2.8ghz will do the same ??

note : i made my decision based on money difference
