interesting, I use windows through bootcamp on a similar system and it
slows to a crawl. Large sites in safari are almost unmanageable and I
could site other instances where the processor overtaxes. On my
macbookpro core2 duo on the other hand, I have found little to nothing
that even slows it down but I don't run windows on it.
I do love my macbook though so small, light and fast.

Good evening Alex,
I've been using a 1.2ghz Core Duo (2mb L2 cache) on a 533mhz bus for a
year and a half, the 2.0ghz Core 2 Duo on a 1066mhz bus will be a nice
change.
Other than virtualization there is nothing that I do that comes close
to taking advantage of my current processor, let alone the new one.
Thanks,
Everett

It will be interesting to see the difference in keyboard from the
old MacBook to the new.
