Socket 939 is the future.
I thought Socket M2/Socket F/Socket 1207 is the future and Socket 939
is the present. See http://tweakers.net/nieuws/39753 - I don't speak
Dutch, but the picture is multi-lingual.
Indeed. But socket 939 is closer to the future than 754 :)
IMHO, upgrading a PC by buying a new processor is a waste of money, so
I buy based on cost today and use the money I save to buy a whole new
system in the future. I guess that explains why I have 10 computers
and one laptop in my house (technically, 2 laptops, but one of them is
parts now). Although, I should admit, there might be other reasons
for all those computers, too...
Well if I understand correctly (and I may well not) socket 939 does
present a very specific upgrade path, in that it supports the dual-core
athlons which are currently very very expensive but may one day get cheaper.
