We've put up our Demo MacBooks up and running at my store (Actually got them the day after the annoucment and have them in stock). We have both 2.0 White and Black up and running. The white version we have Bookcamp running on it. Runs XP Home nicely. My staff placed a game on it and they were not pleased at it's speed (Too Choppy). On the Black version my techs were not too pleased about the trackpad. The oils/residue from your fingers leave that "Shiney" smudge on the trackpad/keys that is more obnoxious than the white model.

Intel to fend off AMD low-power challenge with May 28 price cuts of Core Duo

"Intel will lower prices of three Core Duo dual-core processor models by up to a third on May 28, according to sources. Prices for the T2400, T2500 and T2600 processors will be lowered from US$294, US$423 and US$637 per thousand units to US$241, US$294 and US$423, respectively, with the T2300 currently priced at US$241 per thousand units to be replaced by the T2300E at US$209, the sources said. Intel Taiwan declined to comment on unannounced information," Monica Chen and Carrie Yu report for DigiTimes.

I wonder if this means Apple will be putting the 2.16 ghz in its cheaper MacBook Pro and the new 2.33 ghz in its more expensive models.  Also the cheapest MacBook could then get the 2 ghz, while the other MacBooks get the 2.16 ghz.

What would you personally use that is "Graphics intensive" on a 13" $1099 notebook?

He meant a picture of Mauti and Evill sharing coronas while in speedos!   lol
