Linux Hardware Looks at Core 2
Penguin Lover writes "Linux Hardware has just posted a new story on how Intel's new Conroe performs under Linux. From the article: 'Now is a great time to be CPU shopping because no matter which side of the isle you look on, you have great choice for both CPUs and motherboards. Along with Intel's chipset offerings, keep in mind that NVIDIA has the nForce series for Intel CPUs which would give you SLI support for all your Quake Wars and UT2007 gaming needs.'"
I hate to burst your bubble, but not only do we agree - we are saying the exact same thing :) My original point is that the statement "NOW is the time to buy" is absurd because a. Now is almost always better than yesterday, and b. It will be cheaper tomorrow. In any case, it shouldn't be news to the Slashdot crowd that now is a better time than ever to buy a processor. The same thing was true a month ago, a year ago, and a decade ago. It will be news only when the curve starts to go the other way.
