Ah, I mispoke. Not dual-core, but the Intel CoreDuo. That's what I'm looking for. How about that? I already knew about the AMD's Sorry about that.

Is anybody manufacturing (or planning on releasing soon) a dual core system with a 17" widescreen, IEEE1394, and GeForce FX1400Go graphics? I had hopes that the rumored Dell M90 would be a 17" Dual Core version of the M70, but...
