Interesting: many people get new PC's ignoring Conroe's release in a month or so, despite its great performance.

Not everybody cares

 

[Excelsius]

It's not caring, but simple logic (unless it is necessary to get the PC soon for work or something like that). Another reason could be lack of information. Then there are some people who just stick to the same company regardless of the quality.

 

[PP Mguire]

Or there are ppl who could care less and just want a PC now. Which is what i was implying.

Stop bickering. Conroe comes out in July, people want stuff NOW.

Also, Conroe's are desktop processors. He bought a laptop. The mobile versions off Conroe, named Merom, will be out in August.

So waiting would be pointless because its to long. Idk about you but i would want my laptop now.
