Hmm, so no one was running Max on core 2 duo laptops at all?

Hardware always gets better. The fact is your software will not run any worse than it does today if a new chip comes out tomorrow. If you have knowledge of upgraded hardware on the horizon then it may pay to wait.

I always have two machines.

Built out desktop for when I'm in the office and buy a new laptop every 12-18 months.

I don't expect my laptop to perform as well as my desktop and I also don't use them the same way.
