I'm mad!

My computer broke a little over a month ago and I NEEDED to replace it ASAP... so I got the E6600... now, the 2.66 version is like $50 cheaper and the quad core Q6600 is just like $25 more than the dual core I bought.

I want to cry

A computer that you bought some 2-3 yrs back that broke, would cost just probably 100$ now. So will you be crying for that as well??

Technology prices follow a similar law as cars - just as the value of the car drops 25% when you drive it off the lot, the current price of the product drops as soon as your return policy expires. At the same time, a new version of the technology comes out

The moment you buy a computer its already old, a never version will just come out in a few months.

exactly.. that's why there's no point in trying to catch up to all those new models because they'll never end

But doesn't know when you drive it off the lot it's completely devalued?

[konfusion666]

honestly though, do we (typical consumers) really need a Quad Core CPU???
