    Hello all,

    I have decided to purchase the Lenovo 3000 n100 which has the Intel Centrino Dual Core 1.66GHz 2300E.

    -->My questions:
    Would anyone be willing to contribute experience with this processor?
    Is it the cheapest you can find or does it have a better reputation than that?

    Thank You,
    feinberg

    What are you going to do with your laptop?

    The t2300e should be more than enough, for mostly anything.

    Although not as nice as it's higher end counterparts such as the T2400, the T2300E is still a capable processor. It lacks virtualization compared to the other Core Duos. But for the typical user, its absence is hardly felt.

    I purchased a Lenovo 3000 N100 with the 2300E processor and it is more than adequate for my needs.
