    Mine is Intel Dual Core T2130.

    Although it is not as powerful as modern C2D processors are, it is at least Dual Core, which is a huge improvement compared to my previous CeleronM I used.

    With combination of 1GB RAM memory, it runs Windows XP SP3 and applications I use smoothly, so I need no better one yet.

    Centrino 2 Core 2 Duo P7350 (2.0 Ghz per core).

    But I think I'll get myself T9600 or T9800 when the prices drop.
