• Next Step Up From This Processor
    5 replies, posted
My laptop ([url=http://reviews.cnet.com/laptops/hp-compaq-presario-cq60/4505-3121_7-33695854.html#cnetReview]this one[/url]) is great, but the processor is too slow. Since it has [url=http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=41498]this[/url] processor, what's the next step (or two) up from it?
Laptop processors can't be upgraded.
Some can, and some can't. How would I tell whether or not mine can?
It's an HP. I doubt a brand like HP would sell laptops that have upgradable processors.
Arrrrg. Oh well, I'll use the desktop.
