yay:
The Penryn's potential is classes beyond that of the previous Core 2 generation.
The Penryn-based Core 2 CPU is not just a simple die-shrink, it is a completely new CPU, from the transistors up.
boo:
As always, the Extreme Edition (that tom tested) comes with the extreme price tag of €1000. Potential buyers looking for cheaper models with lower clock speeds will have to wait until next year, as those are set to become available in the first quarter of 2008.
