Well I have been having this q6600 pc for a good minute and I have no issues with it. The only issue I have is with the computer itself. Since its a desktop, its not mobile. I thought about this i believe about 3-4 years ago when I got the q6600 and laptops sucked at that time and I didn't need mobility. \

Some quick questions...

Is the i7 mobile processor faster than the q6600?
Would it be wise to upgrade now or later?
What would you do in this situation?

A few things that I notice is that I would be able to save money on my electricity bill. Being mobile around the house would be another

Here are some benchmarks (see "Performance" tab):

So, it is faster in single and multi-threaded applications.
