That’s right. It’s time to clear the air: most people will not even slightly benefit from the quad-core monstrosity when it becomes available.
For those of you looking at upgrading, you may have yourself in a knot deciding when and what to purchase. There are now extremely fast and viciously-priced dual-core processors on the market — this is, ordinarily, a damn good thing. However, you seemingly can’t ignore the quad-core CPUs on the horizon coming from both AMD and Intel. Surely these upcoming beasts will make roadkill of the existing line?
My unconcealed answer is no. There’s an elephant disguised as a lampshade in this room and it stinks.
Above is a quote from an article in August of 2006 and it has been proven very, very wrong. I think many techies are sick of having to upgrade every six months to keep up with the cpu curve but with faster cpu’s comes better and more useful software, so stop your whining and get with the program.
