    Will the Toshiba Satellite® X205-S9349, which has a T7100 1.8Ghz processor support the new penryn quad cores? When do you think they shall become mainstream?

    Penryn will likely have a new platform, and your current system will not be able to upgrade to a quad core setup. This is likely to be 8-10 months from now though, so we won't know what up intel's sleeve until then.
