    Hey everyone. I'm looking at buying the Sager NP8662 notebook. I was wondering if you were aware of any processor updates that would be coming within the next couple of weeks from Intel.

    I know that this technology is always changing but I'd like to avoid buying a laptop the week before the processor lineup changes! I've seen people post about previous lineup changes so I hope someone can fill me in!

    Thanks

    calpella should be out q4 09, so if you want to buy, buy now and enjoy 4 mths of screaming fast core 2s, or wait till core i5 lands q4 09. I'd just buy now and enjoy the ride.

    My time frame for ordering is between now and end of July. I just want to know if there is any reason to wait (better processors soon) or if I should order right away so I can get my NP8662 that everyone seems to love.
