New Acer Notebook from IT Show

Bought this Core i7-2670QM Notebook by Acer at the IT Show yesterday. Spent practically the whole day there.
Compare the CPU benchmark performance of this new speed demon versus my four year old desktop. A world of difference.


i7-2670QM @ 2.20GHz at 6797 marks

vs

E4600 @ 2.40GHz at 1374 marks. That is almost five times faster.

I surprised myself how quickly I got this machine customized for my needs. Faster than migrating from one smart phone to another. It helped that the desktop PC is still limping. This allows me to move stuff between them.
