Title says it all! The processor type is generally on a little label on the corner of a laptop, or the front of a desktop.

I have an Intel Core Duo Process. 1.66 GHz, I believe...

On the corner of my laptop there are two stickers.
First sticker: Designed for Microsoft Windows
Second sticker: Intel Inside Celeron (and then below that there is a M)
Did that tell you anything?
I never pondered this kind of thing.

Designed for Microsoft Windows just means that is the platform it was designed to be used with.

The processor you have is an Intel Celeron Processor.

Woo, that's good, right?

Well, it's not the best processor out there, but it is still a good one. ;)

Well, I am a big fan of Intel, so it's good in my book.

Those new Intel Core 2 Duo processors are sweet!

What do you say is the best processor?

Probably the newest one, like Stitch mentioned, an Intel Core 2 Duo Processor.

The Dual Core processors are like having two processors in one, so you can multi-task easier.

If you're saying that the Dual Core processors work faster, I don't think I've ever seen a computer work faster than mine does. ;)

You just can't beat those Dual Cores. :D

That's your opinion, but I am almost postive they would be faster. They feature the latest technology. Technology is constantly advancing and you can't always have the latest and greatest. You just have to learn to be happy with what you have.

I seriously do not know of anything that would make that processor better than mine.
Is there anything you could think up that we could compare to see which processor is truely better?

It all depends what you run. I mean, a low-end processor might run Internet Explorer and Word Processing Programs very fast, but if it tried to run a Photo Editing Program, then it wouldn't be able to handle it. However, a high-end processor would be able to run all that and more at the same time.

So it all depends on what you are using it for.

But if you look at technology, which is the facts, Dual Core Processors are better than Celeron processors.

I'm not going to go into detail and such and compare processors, but if you would, you can always check out Intel's site.

Mine will out run yours in anything...flat out Intel Pentium Extreme Edition 3.73GHz you cant beat that and the only thing that will come any where near close is AMD Opteron 285 2.6GHz

Ok, the AMD Opteron is a server processor. The current top of the lines are AMD 64X2 processor, and the Intel Core Duo 2 Extreme. Please note that there are multiple processors under these categories.

LOL Mine's an intel pentium 3 :)

P.S. Does anybody know what the VMKF servers run on?
