Gna, I never was a fan of the Pentium IV, never had one, and never want
to have a computer burning so much energy. Since Pentium III was
outdated, I didn't see a interesting IA32 CPU since Pentium M was born.
Not from Inteland also not from AMD. I don't see a reason to buy a
desktop system anymore, my Centrino Notebook is fast enough for
everything I'm doing (including the packman package compiling). 15
Watt/h for reading E-Mails is enough (for the complete computer) and I
hope LCDs will be replaced by OLEDs in near future to reduce it once
again.
