Thanks for the well thought out and classy responses to the Dell news.

The only thing I would add is that you are comaparing Intel's Core Duo which is 32 bits with AMD's Turion chips which can run 64 bit software. It's not an issue for most customers right now but this will eventually change. In the meantime some customers will purchase AMD based laptops because they are 64 bit capable.

When will a 64 bit Intel mobile chip be available and what kind of power will it require?

The next year will be very interesting.
