Re: "Intel also stated that the Core Duo platform will support the next version of Microsoft Windows, code-named Vista."
That was rather obvious to most thinking people but
some folks only learn with application of two by four
logic.
Actually, the new theory is that Vista will be so memory intensive that anything 2GB or less would cause excessive disk swapping. Therefore, you can run Vista with a Core Duo, but it will be barely usable. LOL, what do you think that of that whopper, Chipguy?? <VBG>
