core 2 duo laptop

[wangstramedeous]

I've been itching to buy a new laptop recently but with intel's new release actually delivering I'm re-thinking my options. Are there any pc makers out there shipping laptops with the core 2 duo chips yet? I know gateway has a desktop line but not a laptop yet. Anyone know?

I don't think the Meroms are shipping in quantity yet...

Yeah you will have to wait for them a bit longer...

is Christmas time long enough? or are we talking 2007?

Do you think they might eat the batteries too fast?

No... at least not more than the current Core Duo-based ones...

And I wouldn't be surprised if they come out by the Christmas time. :)
