    Assuming that all else is eqaul(Intel T9300 CPU, ect, ect) what is the difference in performance going to be between a Lenovo T61 which does not have dual channel memory Vs. a Dell XPS M1530 which does have dual channel memory and how significant will those differences be???

    Intel motherboards have a special Flex Mode feature that uses dual-channel even if you have asymmetrical RAM sticks.
