Here is a comparison of the processor in our current laptop, and a new laptop I'm considering buying:

Although the newer one is 1.3 (as opposed to our current 1.6), is it actually likely to be (or more accurately "feel") faster than the existing one?
I'm not a newbie, and I've looked at the other specs for the machines - the newer machine has a faster disk and FSB, as well has having more memory. The only intensive thing I can think it'll be used for is flash-based games.
Usually even more intensive than flash-based games is HD Streaming content. But even my macbook with a 2 GHz Core 2 Duo had trouble with 720p content on Hulu, although I can't see that 720p content exists anymore on there. – Will Eddins – 2009-11-10T19:56:48.907
