Undeniable, when looking at new notebooks my processor choice has been Intel Core 2 Duo for a while now and the best battery life you can get.

Recently, we hear things are about to get much cheaper for buyers of Core 2 Duo products, Intel has announced big price cuts last week and this worked out at a 31% price drop on the top-end Intel Core 2 Duo E8500.

With money getting tight for a lot of people around the world, its good news to hear that Intel Core 2 Duo processor series have got cheaper and lets hope we able to see this discount passed onto the notebooks that house them.

The Intel Core 2 Duo E7200’s will now cost $113. The Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 is priced at $183 and the Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 at $183. The main reason is we are seeing these price cuts would be to make room for the new Intel Core 2 Quad series.

The question is, do you prefer to get value for money when buying new laptops and processors or do you like getting the best technology, i.e. Core 2 Quad series?
