Or this full system

 Thats just common sense.

RE: Computers
If you can wait a few months (2 or 3), I read on neowin that Intel will start to ship it's new quad-core chips.
It might be a little more expensive than these pointed out of course, but if your budget allows it, why not.

You're being stupid, those are the old ones. They are just two dual core dies stuck together iirc. They are bringing out new ones like albert said. |
