But don't be frustrated.<br><br>The fastest released version of the 4 cores versions runs at 1.82 Ghz (i7-840QM). When TurboBoost is enabled, 2 cores are disabled on-the-fly in order to reduce power consumption.<br><br>
Apple should have their reasons for releasing the 2.66 Ghz version of the 2-cores version. In terms of average CPU performance, it's probably a better choice, considering that most of the software still use only 1 core for intensive CPU tasks.<br>

<div>Oh wow, didn't even know there were mobile CPU's from Intel with 4 cores these days... bummer! Strange Apple is not offering these.</div><div><br>-- </div><div class="im"><div><br></div><div>Joost Schuttelaar</div>
