Re: Since this is the 3rd time you've waxed on and on about the "two extra speed bins," let me point out to you that the flat pricing of the X2's allows room for 2.2 GHz on or before Intel releases their 2.26 GHz.

But is it worth it to pay $100 more for a 2.2GHz Turion X2 than a 2GHz Core Duo which would have equal performance and longer battery life?

Intel is releasing a 2.33GHz part on May 28.

I don't think it is a matter of pricing for AMD, but of power-speed bins, i.e. ability.
